Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
credit cards
i have 1 credit card which is maxed out at 22000.00 i recently lost my job and tried to make arrangements with the bank but no success. now a collection agency has contacted me. they said my credit card was secured by my personal assets,which i dont think is correct. they are threatening to sue if i dont pay. i am still trying to make arrangements but if the card was not secured, what legal action can they persue or is bankruptcy my only alternative.

Re: credit cards
All credit cards are secured by personal assets of the debtor. They must sue & obtain a judgment against you. You or your attorney should try to work out a payment schedule. Good luck.
