I was told by my bank that there is a lien on my property from this company. I stopped paying the monthly installments because od an illness so i got behind and went to debt settlement comapny who was trying to neogoite a reduce settlement . However the company hired an attorney and they agve me court date of October 18 to appear in court for a judgement hearing. I do not have $ 3,600 to pay them them.
