Cricket Debt Counseling is a Portland, Oregon-based nonprofit organization that provides credit counseling services required for individuals seeking bankruptcy protection. Founded by former bankruptcy attorneys and financial planning professionals, the group offers unbiased guidance on debt management options and personal bankruptcy, operating as a 501(c)(3) organization approved by the United States Trustees across its jurisdiction. Its services are designed to help debtors understand their choices, including the relative benefits and disadvantages of debt management plans versus bankruptcy, without regard to a client’s ability to pay, and waivers are available for counseling fees when needed. The organization positions itself within the consumer services sector as a non-profit budget and credit counseling agency that is separate from banks, credit card companies, collection agencies, or other credit counseling entities. Cricket Debt Counseling serves individuals in need of pre-bankruptcy credit counseling and aims to provide neutral, unbiased information to inform their financial decisions.
