What is private student loan debt validation?

Debt validation is a legal right under the FDCPA that allows borrowers to request proof that a debt is valid and that the collector has the legal right to collect it. If the debt cannot be validated, it may be reduced or eliminated.

With Private Student Relief, most clients resolve their private student loan debt in 24 to 60 months depending on their financial situation and the strategy used.
