If you are on ss and that is your only income then even if the cc companys take you to court and get a judgement they will not be able to garnish your ss check, BUT if you own property they could put a lien on the property. You said you talked to two attorneys what did they tell you? Is bankruptcy an option for you?

First what happened to get the 20,000 in credit card bills, was husband making a large income ? If inhis name were any of them insured against his death ?

If you can't pay, you just don't pay, if the calls bother you, write them and tell them not to call you again
