Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

Debt collection

I have an issue conference coming up this Friday and hoped to get an appointment with an attorney through the Bar Association but they are swamped and have no available appointments!

Quick background: I was served in October 2007, requested debt validation via certified letter, the plaintiff has only produced a copy of ''a'' bill, and has left a message for me to contact them due to a ''change in status'' on my account. Should I continue to ignore the call since the Issue Conference is this Friday?

An attorney prepared paperwork for me to send to the plaintiff. He asked & answered certain questions relating to the debt collection. They have responded, but only to some.

Should I only be concerned with giving the plaintiff ''required'' information on what ''evidence'' I have and what witnesses I'll have at the Issue Conference?

They sent me paperwork stating that I am required by law to provide this information. Also, if they haven't provided more proof of debt validation by the time the Issue Conference starts, what does this mean for me/them?

A trial has already been set for May 14th.

I appreciate any help you can give me! I feel like I'm going to drown without an experts help!
