Our mission

Our mission is to resolve your outstanding balances, whether they are current or delinquent, or in the form of credit cards or unsecured loans, through an efficient negotiation as quickly and comfortably as possible.

We retain expert negotiators skilled in protecting borrowers from predatory credit card interest rates and aggressive debt collectors. Our debt relief specialists fight the debt negotiation fight for you, so you don’t have to. If we can’t reach an agreement with your debtor, we do not accept compensation for that portion of your debt, but rest assured that if we say we can negotiate it, we can.

The most important thing to take away from our mission statement is that trustworthiness is the foundation of our financial institution. Enrollment into one of our debt relief programs is the first step in your personal finance debt solution. Citizens Debt Relief strives to reduce the total amount of your unsecured debt balance to just a fraction of what is owed. Regardless of the specific amount of debt acquired, the specific period of time it has remained delinquent, or your resulting credit score, our strong-minded settlement company team is determined to make your debt settlement manageable.

Phaedra V

I had a few maxed credit cards with high interest, which became impossible to keep up with since the pandemic started. Conor has settled with 2 creditors so far, down to half or a little less than half of what I originally owed. He gets right back to me with any questions or concerns, and he and everyone I've spoken to has been very polite. I highly recommend this company to help you with your debt.

I worked directly with Conor Cousin. I have been struggling with High interest credit card debt since the pandemic hit and it was becoming hard for me to get any headway. Conor was able to show me a process to make me debt free once and for all. Highly recommend working with Citizens. Responsive and quick to respond all my questions and concerns.

We've worked directly with Thomas Fischer and he's been great! We got involved in real estate investing through a company and after a while found out that quite a few of the things we were taught were either not true or were unethical. We paid a large sum of money to get all these credit cards to use for doing business and paying for our training. It didn't work out and now we are seeking to avoid bankruptcy by paying back what we can. Thomas has helped us immensely with his guidance and understanding.
