Lance Cothern United States

I write on a wide range of personal finance topics including saving, paying off debt, investing, credit card rewards, frugal living and more. I currently hold a Certified Public Accountant license in the Commonwealth of Virginia and reside in the state of Florida. Personally, my wife and I have paid off over $80,000 of her student loan debt within three years of her graduation which allows me to relate to a wide range of financial topics when writing.

Mr Jay Fleischman United States

If you're looking for a trusted authority in the areas of student loans, bankruptcy, debt and consumer protection then I can help.

As your readers drown in a sea of content, your challenge is to present clear and concise information that informs and entertains.

Site owners need to be sure that the articles they publish are reliable and accurate. Content creators struggle with the overwhelming and complex volume of research available to help accomplish their goals.

I can help you get what you're looking for.

I've been a consumer protection attorney in the fields of consumer bankruptcy, credit reporting, debt collection harassment and student loans since 1995. I've not only helped thousands of people with their bill problems, I'm also a nationally-recognized speaker and teacher in the field.

Need help? Let's set up a time to meet and see how I can help you further your business objectives.
