I am in the process of cleaning up my credit. I am about $30,000 in debt and I have already settled on one account. My first questions what are the statue of limitations in texas on old credit debt and who can I contact to fax or email me the specifics on my state. I was informed after seven years I could have the old debt removed by faxing all three credit agencies. I am not sure if that applies to everything though like cars, medical bills, credit cards etc. so I will need that information as well. My husband got hurt and we incurred massive medical bills. How do I handle that if they have not yet hit the statue of limitations. What is the most effective way to handle old debt? Most everything is in collections so the companies sold it to them, do I deal with them to settle? thank you for this website: signed debtfree
