Re: sued by collection agency
A bankruptcy is usually the only thing that will stop a lawsuit if you owe the money.
"Charged off" does not mean you don't owe it. It simply is a derogatory report that shows taht you have refused to pay and they haven't yet collected.
Don't assume a bankruptcy is as expensive as you think it is. Contact my office for more details on costs.
