Or, you may be able to get your creditors to agree to accept a certain amount of your debt as a partial settlement.

However, if you are unable to negotiate a repayment plan with your creditors, you may want to consider filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy. This form of bankruptcy allows you to reorganize your debts into one monthly payment. This will allow you to catch up on your payments, consolidate your debts, and protect your assets from creditor harassment.
