Professional Debt Collectors (Retail and Medical Accounts)

Do you know the value of third-party debt collection to the US Economy?  Every year, professional debt collectors return billions of dollars in delinquent debt that would otherwise go uncollected.  In 2007 alone, it was reported that over $40 billion was returned to credit grantors.  Professional debt collecting prevents American households from paying higher prices for the many goods and services they receive (a reported average of $350 per American household). 

At TRAF, we are in the business of debt collecting because it is the right thing to do.  We are a team of professional people trying to help debtors be responsible and pay for what they owe to others.  If you believe, like we do, that everyone should pay their debts, and would like to help our clients recoup losses resulting from bad debt, we have the right opportunity for you.
