Well here is my story, looking for anybody with some advice
Back in September of 2005 a collection company got a judgment against me (I never received any letters to come to court or anything). At that time they froze my bank account and in order for them to take off the lien they made me pay 1500 of the debt which the actual debt was only 3800 or so, they claimed it was over 5000. I had then agreed to pay 150 a month to clear the debt however I could not make ends meet and therefore had no money to send them. Now my boss got an information subpena, and I'm worried they will put a lien on my account again or try to garnish wages
1) Can I go to court to dispute the judgement and if so how?
2) is it worth calling the lawyer/collection to try to make a deal ( even though they are ripping me off?
3) or is there anything else I can do
PLEASE HELP ME
Thanks all
