Do I have to go to court if I received a summons for an unpaid debt but made payment arrangements?

Answered by attorney Roberta Ohlinger-Johnson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Harris, Yug & Ohlinger
It's up to you. If you don't a default judgment will be entered and in Nevada attorneys fees and interest will be applied, increasing the total cost. But you already have a payment arrangement.

How do I get that lien removed from my title so I can get a clean one?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
I would start by contacting the creditor to ask for a release of the lien and return of the title. Might help to provide proof showing that payment was made in full, which you can obtain from trustee accounting site.

If I am on food stamps and have no income can I file for bankruptcy to erase my credit card debt?

Answered by attorney Jay William Moreland (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Jay W. Moreland, P.A.
You probably can, but you should talk to a bankruptcy attorney to see if it is in your best interest. You should also take the letter you mentioned to the attorney. After a judgment is obtained against you, the court can require you to provide information about your assets. If you fail to do so, you may be sent to jail until you provide the information. Once you tell the court that you have no assets you have fulfilled your obligation. If you actually have nothing, the judgment may be uncollectible whether you file bankruptcy or not. That is why you need to get counsel from an attorney. Many bankruptcy attorneys provide free initial consultations.
