Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New Jersey
Co-signing
I have co-signed for a now ex-boyfriend who lives in PA. I live in NJ. If I were to sue him for ruining my credit and the debt owed, in which state would I have to sue him?

Re: Co-signing
This is a very common situation and is why you should never cosign for anyone. The location for where to sue him depends on how much money we are talking about here. However, without an attorney, I'm not sure how far you are going to get. You may be better off getting an attorney to deal with the collectors who are going to start calling.
