Debt Free League Review on Debt Relief Options Alleviates Unemployment, Foreclosure and Bankruptcy Woes

Massive unemployment and foreclosures question if the recession has ended. A 60 Minutes video reports California's unemployment is actually 22%. However, Debt Free League helps those considering bankruptcy to explore available debt relief options.

2010-11-06
SAN DIEGO, CA, November 06, 2010 (Press-News.org) Rampant unemployment is drowning the country. A shocking 60 Minutes video reports the 9.5% national unemployment actually at 17%, and in California, where it was at 12.4% in September, at 22%. As no surprise, California has been plagued with lingering foreclosures. Due to widespread panic many that fear the recession hasn't ended are considering bankruptcy. Helping ease the tension, Debt Free League announced recent improvements to their debt relief service.

The debt management company feels Americans' economical pains: the company is located in San Diego County, where, as of October, 14,500 homes were in the process of foreclosure.

So do numerous communities in California...

According to RealtyTrac, foreclosure filings increased in Vallejo (45%), Los Angeles, where they are nearing 49,000, and in the Riverside and San Bernardino area, where they nearly doubled. Modesto, Stockton, and Merced in Central Valley California, recorded a 62% increase.

"So many people that are struggling to pay bills and keep their homes are being forced into bankruptcy", declares Dio Lugo, a Debt Free League representative.

According to federal bankruptcy court, as of September 2010 in Orange County, California, bankruptcies jumped 37.2% - the highest number since October 2005. The meteoric rise of bankruptcy filings is expected to continue as the scarcity of job opportunities remains at an all-time high.

Complicating matters, 1/3 of the unemployed have been without work over a year - a record that has not been repeated since the great depression.

Lugo is the perfect poster child. Prior to working at Debt Free League, she had been out of work for 16 months and was stressed by the anxiety of bills piling up.

Now that the $100 billion footed by taxpayers for extended unemployment benefits has dried up, millions without jobs continue in her former predicament.

At best, Americans are hopeful. Some pray for Republicans, after gaining control over the House of Representatives, to finally pull together with President Obama in helping the jobless.

In the interim, California shows no signs of economic optimism. As reported by the Business Forecasting Center at the University of the Pacific, the state's unemployment rate is predicted to continue over 10% for three more years.

Amid the stagnant recovery, Debt Free League mobilized their debt relief services to help families hurt by a shortage in their household incomes.

Urgently confronting California's unemployment and foreclosure crisis, the company offers people the ability to compare debt consolidation, and debt settlement (a.k.a., debt negotiation) firms as well as national bankruptcy services.

The outcome of their unique service is to help people find the best rates and best debt elimination program depending on their actual situation.

Lately, as a convenience to consumers, Debt Free League representatives have been making house calls and assisting people at their local Starbucks. The benefit is a great money saver on gas, and has been a blessing for people with busy schedules.

"If you are behind on bills, give us a call for a free consultation. Based on your financial situation, we'll help you compare up to four debt management programs", adds Lugo.

People interested in debt relief quotes may call a Debt Free League representative at 1-800-213-9968.

The free service provided includes a free debt evaluation and comparison of programs that are aimed at lowering monthly payments and reducing credit card debt, IRS taxes, medical bills, student loans, and unsecured business debts.

Third Party Claims in Georgia Workers' Compensation Cases

2010-11-06
Pretty much everyone knows that if you are injured on the job, you have the right to seek workers' compensation benefits from your employer. What many people do not know, however, is that it may be possible to bring a lawsuit against people other than your employer who may have contributed to your injuries. Known as third party claims, these suits are designed to ensure that an employee is fully and fairly compensated for the effects of a workplace injury. The concept of workers' compensation is a noble one -- providing necessary benefits for injured workers while shielding ...

National Domestic Violence Awareness Month: Breaking the Cycle of Fear

2010-11-06
Since 1987, the National Resource Center on Domestic Violence has promoted October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month to unite advocates across the nation in efforts to reduce violence against women and children. The U.S. Congress has recognized the month every year since in light of the fact that one of four American women will be physically or sexually assaulted by a husband or partner during her lifetime. This year's presidential proclamation in honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month calls domestic violence a "devastating public health crisis," but continues ...

Businesses and Consumers Face Choices as Bankruptcies Increase

2010-11-06
In New Jersey, the total number of bankruptcy filings increased over 25 percent in the year that ended on June 30. This increase exceeded the national average of 20.4 percent. The national figures included 1.51 million consumer bankruptcy filings and 59,608 business filings. Extent of Business Bankruptcy Filings These figures are not surprising, given the tough economy of the last few years. What is surprising, however, is that the increase in bankruptcy filings has not necessarily translated into more work for law firms that handle Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganizations ...

The Momentum to Criminalize "Spice," the Legal Marijuana

2010-11-06
Criminalizing "spice" is the latest aggressive agenda of many state and local jurisdictions, including Utah. The spice found in a common household kitchen cabinet is not the target, but a mixture of herbs and chemical ingredients (labeled as "spice") that creates effects similar to marijuana when smoked. Regardless of uncertainty over any long-term health implications of smoking spice and the likely practical effects of a ban, law makers and law enforcement officials across the nation are jumping on board and passing regulations to curtail its use. A total of 11 states ...

Protecting Your Interests and Assets After A Car Accident

2010-11-06
According to the Texas Department of Transportation, in 2009 nearly 60,000 car accidents seriously injured more than 80,000 people on Texas roads. Although this marks a 5 percent decrease from the prior year, this is still far too many people with severe and sometimes life-altering injuries. For those who have suffered injury or serious property damage in one of these auto accidents, an insurance company's initial settlement offer may be tempting. After all, injured parties often need immediate access to funds in order to pay medical bills, vehicle repair costs, or to ...

Electronic Logbooks For Truckers Are Good, But Mandate Brings Problems

2010-11-06
For years, truckers have tried to make light of their efforts to stay awake while hauling those heavy loads on such tight schedules. Dave Dudley's 1963 hit, "Six Days On The Road," is one example. The song mentions truck drivers using amphetamines to stay awake ("I'm taking little white pills and my eyes are open wide") and falsifying load limits and log books ("I'm a little overweight and my log book's way behind"). Truck drivers are human and there's no need to demonize them. But ultimately, the fatigue drivers suffer can cause terrible truck accidents with serious ...

Primer for Drunk Driving Penalties in Illinois

2010-11-06
The Federal Bureau of Investigation estimates there were more than 1.4 million DUI arrests nationwide in 2003. According to the 2010 Illinois DUI Fact Book, there were more than 48,000 in-state arrests for driving under the influence (DUI) in 2008. A driver is considered legally under the influence in Illinois if he or she has a blood-alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 or more, has used any illegal substance or is impaired by medication. Drivers with a BAC between .05 and .08 may also be convicted of DUI if they are impaired. With limited exception for religious ceremonies ...

Reestablishing Credit After Bankruptcy

2010-11-06
According to the American Bankruptcy Institute, over 400,000 people filed for bankruptcy in the second quarter of 2010. This is on top of the over 373,000 people that filed in the first quarter of the year. These numbers lead experts to predict that 2010 will have the largest number of bankruptcy filings since 2005. Bankruptcy is the first step for many people to get out from under overwhelming debt. But once the bankruptcy process is complete, consumers are forced to consider another major step in rebuilding their financial lives -- reestablishing credit. While finding ...

Study Reveals 200 Cases of Prosecutor Misconduct; Taxpayers Pay Millions

2010-11-06
An investigation by the USA Today has revealed over 200 cases of prosecutorial misconduct. Federal prosecutors were found to have violated laws and imprisoned innocent people. Now, guilty citizens are being released on technicalities and taxpayers are footing the bill. The scathing report indicates the Department of Justice prosecutors concealed evidence, violated ethical rules, lied in court to juries and judges, and broke plea bargains made with defendants. No Accountability Despite the widespread abuse of prosecutor power, accountability seems to be rare. Just ...

DePuy Hip Systems Recalled: What you Should Know

2010-11-06
DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc., recently recalled two hip aid systems citing high early failure rates. The business, a Johnson & Johnson Company division, sold about 93,000 units globally and found more people than expected suffered pain severe enough to require additional surgery. The global recall comes in the wake of a recent Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warning letter issued to the company for selling hip and other joint products without the agency's approval, based on its sale of other, unrelated products. According to the Associated Press, this is the 11th Johnson ...
