“Dear Steve,
My wife and I are in a difficult financial situation. We ride to file bankruptcy in the past, but that didn’t work out for us, but we consider a debt consolidation or dispute. However we were contacted by the DDS for services, before we sign any agreement with them , we want to make sure the company ” DDS” is legal and legitimate.
Legality, and legitimacy of the company.
Is debt defense services a legal and legitimate company?
