I recently saw an advertisement that lead me to Freedom Debt Management and the logo reminded me of another company with a similar name, Freedom Debt Relief. Take a look below and tell me what you think.
If I was Freedom Debt Relief I’d be upset about the similarities that could easily lead to consumer confusion.
Freedom Debt Management, which is located at 941A Clint Moore Rd, Boca Raton, FL 33487 is also related with the former CreditCare Foundation through Anthony Jurasinski, which merged into Freedom Debt Management. – Source

Michael Brazier was listed as the Operations Manager for Freedom Debt Management on their latest non-profit return, here, that was filed March, 2009.
Here is the problem, Freedom Debt Relief, a non-profit credit counseling organization, is not registered in West Virginia to business, according to the Attorney General’s office there.
In my opinion, seriously guys at FDM, you’d think before you ran an advertisement in the West Virginia state capital you’d at least make sure you were registered to do business there.
One question I have is why does Freedom Debt Management operate two different web sites for the same company? See this one and that one. Seems very odd.
You are not alone. I'm here to help. There is no need to suffer in silence. We can get through this. Tomorrow can be better than today. Don't give up.
