Are you getting calls from debt collectors? Do you owe more money than you can pay back? You are not alone — and you have more options than you may think.
In this episode, host Dean Hinton sits down with Alise Housden, an attorney at Legal Aid Society of Middle Tennessee and the Cumberlands. Alise has spent her entire legal career focused on consumer law and bankruptcy. Before joining Legal Aid, she worked at several law firms in Nashville helping people deal with debt. She knows how scary and confusing these situations can feel — and she knows how to help.
Dean and Alise talk about what debt collection really means, what your rights are when someone is trying to collect money from you, and what bankruptcy is. They explain the difference between the most common types of bankruptcy — and help you understand which one might make sense for your situation.
This episode is for anyone who is struggling with bills, being contacted by debt collectors, or wondering if bankruptcy might be an option.
You do not have to figure this out on your own. Legal Aid may be able to help you for free. Call us at 1-800-238-1443.
