Re: credit cards

It depends where you are at in process. If you have been sued, you would need to respond in a timely matter or else they can get a judgment against you no matter what valid arguments you may have. If they are sending you letters or calling, I would go to the library, go on-line and do research or order a book on dealing with debt collectors - for instance, type in "fair debt collection" on google.
