The United States economy has taken a great toll on the financial stability of American citizens. Despite what the government would have us believe, many middle class people in this country are suffering due to the staggering burden of debt. Unemployment is still high, and underemployment is rampant among those who are working. With extended unemployment benefits eliminated, many people are reaching the point where they simply cannot keep up. If you find yourself in this situation, understand that you are not alone. Do not allow yourself to be defined by your debt, and don’t allow banks and credit card companies to ruin your life or affect the happiness that your family shares each day. You may feel hopeless and at the mercy of a faltering economy, but don’t despair. Relief is available and sometimes it is in your best interest to use the law to protect yourself when you are buried under a pile of debt. You aren’t responsible for the economy, and you didn’t create the mortgage crisis.
