Debt and Housing

Debts

We are experts in the field of debt and can help with any debt problem including

• rescheduling and agreeing more favourable terms with any creditor;
• challenging any disputed debts;
• making representations on your behalf to avoid possession orders being made in respect of your home or arranging your representation in such proceedings;
• negotiating a favourable settlement without the need for court proceedings;
• arranging public funding subject to eligibility.

We know that there are very few lawyers capable of or willing to provide expert debt advice to those who need it most.

We are one of the few firms in the North East of England that has a contract with the Legal Services Commission (formerly the Legal Aid Board) to provide debt advice.

Our client base is extensive and we know that we are experts in this field.

TMJ Legal Services LLP has always wanted to make sure that everyone in the local community has equal access to our expert law services. To help the community we not only hold a franchise to give debt advice but also in family and housing.
