But the amout they wanted to me to pay is 1,000 down and 560 dollars for the next 5 months. I can't come up with that much money. Why want the attorney accepted nothing less than this or is it the fact that i must try and negoiate the price down. What are my options if i can't pay and have to go to court? When i get to court what do I tell the judge.
