See an attorney immediately to help set aside the default and file an answer or other responsive pleading. Don't stand on ceremony, because you soon will have a judgment against you, and the plaintiff will levy your wages and bank account.

"Comments"? Unless you take appropriate action, you'll have a default judgment against you. If you don't know how to practice law, and if you're not able or willing to study and learn the court procedures and court rules, then hire an attorney to do so. You'll have to file a motion to quash service, among other things. Do it timely or lose the case.
