A Focus on Credit Counseling & Debt Consolidation

American Financial Solutions is dedicated to providing debt counseling and financial education to consumers to help them make sound financial decisions and find debt solutions to improve their financial futures. 

For clients who need assistance repaying their unsecured debts, we also offer a Debt Management Plan (DMP). This plan involves working with creditors to consolidate all unsecured debt payments into one convenient monthly payment on a day of your choosing. Creditors generally give the following benefits to those enrolled in our Debt Management Plan:

• Lower monthly payments
• Lower interest rates
• Waived fees
• Reduced collection calls

Our Certified Credit Counselors

Debt counseling involves meeting, either in person or by phone, with a certified credit counselor who will review your entire financial situation and develop a plan to help you achieve your financial goal of becoming debt-free. 

American Financial Solutions (AFS) credit counselors are certified through the National Foundation for Credit Counseling (NFCC). They participate in ongoing education in order to provide consumers with the most effective methods for managing their debt.

Our credit counselors are compassionate, non-judgmental, highly trained individuals who are able to analyze your financial situation and provide options to help. Our debt counseling services are confidential and free of charge. Get started with our online application today!
