Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

Getting suied over credit card debt

My daughter is getting suied by a credit card company.

originally when she received the credit card she was

employed. She became disabled and was unable to make the

payments. She contacted the company and they told her they

would write it off. She received a letter from a collection

agency that she was being suied for approximately $6,000.

she has no income and is my dependent. Am I responsible for

her debt? Does she need to get legal representation? She has

filed for disability but was denied and it is in an appeal

process. What do you advise us to do? T

Unfortunately, they have the right to sue, although it appears to be a waste of their time.

You have no liability for the debt.
