Just because a company publishes a nice looking web site and offers to issue a loan, there is no assurance that the deal offered will be any good.
Take, for example, this outrageous offer for unsecured debt offered by a loan company on the Internet. You can get up to $3,000, but you will pay back [...]

Social Security would like your help. Predatory lenders in some places have found a way to, in effect, take control of Social Security payments and collect fees from that meager stipend essentially forever. The Social Security Administration is taking public comments until June 20, 2008 about what they should do, if anything.

About: Who Am I? I am an honors graduate of the University of Maryland School of Law, and I founded this law firm over fifteen years ago. In that time I’ve represented thousands of people, helping them get back on the road to financial success.
I am a member of the Maryland and District of Columbia federal (general and Bankruptcy Court) and state bars, the United States Tax Court bar, the Fourth Circuit and District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals bars and the United States Supreme Court bar. I am a signatory to the Montgomery County Bar Association Lawyer's Creed of Professionalism.
My Philosophy of Helping. My clients are my top priority, and I work hard to make them as comfortable as possible. I’m available many evenings, and return phone calls and e-mail messages as quickly as possible. I’ll explain the details of the law in plain terms, never complex “legalese.”
Your satisfaction is my goal. It’s hard enough to go through tough financial times; I try to make it easier for you.
America’s News Media Turns to Me for My Opinion. I have received international media attention in connection with the cases in which I’ve been involved. I was interviewed by Barbara Walters on The View, appeared on the Today Show, Good Morning America, ABC News with Peter Jennings, the Montel Williams Show, BBC World Service, German state television, and numerous local radio and television programs, and been quoted in Money magazine, The Washington Post and The Baltimore Sun, among others.
More Than Just a Lawyer. I don't spend all of my time chained to the desk, working on bankruptcy cases. People might like that, but I enjoy my spare time as well. I love my wife, my four children and my dog Belle. They help me always realize that family and loved ones are the most important parts of life.See Authors Posts (7) on Mar 31, 2008 in Family Debt Problems, Payday Loans | 1 Comment

So why [...]
