About Melinda Dionne

My name is Melinda Murphy Dionne. I was born in Sylacauga, Alabama. I graduated from Alabama, Summa Cum Laude in 1983. In August of 1983, I began my legal studies at the University Of Alabama School Of Law. I graduated law school and began clerking for the Honorable George S. Wright, in May 1986.

Advantages of Filing Chapter 13

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy can lower your interest rate or payment on certain loans, protect co-signers, pay attorneys fees, keep all property and stop creditor harassment.

Disadvantages of Filing Chapter 13

There are some disadvantages to filing Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. For example, only individuals with regular, stable income can file, and you will be under the supervision of the court for a period of time.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 is the quickest and least expensive form of bankruptcy. It is a form of bankruptcy that allows debtors to wipe out most of their unsecured debt and any secured debt on property that debtors wish to surrender.

Credit Counseling

Find out the important things to look for when seeking the help of a reputable credit counselor. It is important to do your homework when it comes to choosing a credit counselor.

Reasons to File Bankruptcy

The only reason to file a bankruptcy case is that it will improve your life. Bankruptcy can actually improve your health, your happiness, your relationships with the ones you love. Eventually it can also improve your credit score.

Debt Consolidation

Learn about the possible pitfalls of debt consolidation loans. Many people who get these types of loans often end up in worse trouble down the road. Debt consolidation can be the beginning of the end.

Debt Management

Find out how debt management programs can destroy your credit. Can you afford to pay both your creditors and the debt management company until you have proof your creditors have accepted your plan?

Debt Negotiation Programs

These programs involve hiring a company to negotiate with your creditors for lower payments, debt concessions, or lower interest rates. Debt Negotiation Programs are very risky and can have a long term negative impact on your credit.

Direct Negotiation With Creditors

Negotiating directly with your creditors is something that you can do yourself. In general, you can attempt to get your creditors to lower your interest rates, reduce the amount you owe, or adjust your payments to a more manageable level.
