Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Missouri
I am being sued by a debt collector in the state of Missouri. I don't live in that state now. I want to avoid a default judgment against me. The debt is only one or two months from being legally uncollectible (5 years). What would be my best course of action?
Thanks!

Hire a Missouri lucensed attorney to represent you in the litigation.
Good luck

You should hire an attorney in or near the area of the Court where suit was filed. The filing of the lawsuit stayed the running of the statute of limitations. I've handled these cases for the last 37 years. Feel free to call me if the suit is in or near St. Louis.
