Debt Settlement Agreement Free
When a Debtor (the person who owes money) or a Creditor (the person who is owed money) wants to resolve an outstanding debt that is owed, a Debt Settlement Agreement can be used.
Template Overview
When a Debtor (the person who owes money) or a Creditor (the person who is owed money) wants to resolve an outstanding debt that is owed, a Debt Settlement Agreement can be used. The document is used when the Debtor is unable to pay the full amount of the debt that they owe to the Creditor.
In the contract, the parties can negotiate and agree on a lower amount of money that the Debtor will have to pay to cover the debt. Therefore, the Debtor gets a chance to repay the debt, and the creditor includes part of his losses. This Agreement can be used to put in writing the terms of the agreement that the Parties have negotiated, or it can be used for one Party to propose to the other Party the terms of resolving the outstanding debt.
