Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California
Being sued by a collection agenency
I am being sued by a lawyer collecting for Capitol One. I worked out a payment arrangement with this company but still filed an answer with the court because I dispute the ridiculous amount they are demanding. I recvd a notice of conditional settlement from them if I sign they will dismiss the case. But it is still at the disputed amount. Should I let this go to court instead and hope I can get the amount reduced to a resonable amount? What are my odds of beating them? I want to pay the original debt but not this extremely inflated amount that they are still trying to charge me interst on.

What were the terms of your payment arrangement? How much and how long were you going to pay? Feel free to contact me during the week.
