How do I answer a summons for credit card debt?

Charles Reiger Gallagher
Answered by attorney Charles Reiger Gallagher
Bankruptcy lawyer at Gallagher & Associates Law Firm, P.A.
You really need to secure an attorney. Yes, you must file a response within 20 days of being served with the lawsuit, but it's not a matter of just writing down the facts of your case. So often we see pro se parties that "don't know what they don't know" and waive many valuable rights and defenses. Stating that the debt is true is almost as bad as not asserting any defense at all. That will allow the creditor to quickly obtain a judgment against you. Do you have any viable defenses, such as standing, waiver or estoppel? Is the party suing you the one that you initially signed the credit card agreement with? Have you seen an original signed copy of the credit card agreement? And in discussing what is not a defense, advising the court of medical issues, job loss or family issues which have led to your non-payment, not of those are legal defenses to the allegation of non-payment.

Why are we still on the title if we surrendered the house in bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Edward M Olson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Olson Law Firm
You may still be liable, depending on the actual terms of the Home Owner's Association documents. In addition, you can be personally liable for all the months you occupied the house AFTER you filed for bankruptcy, because bankruptcy does not discharge any obligations that arise after the date you file.

Should I consider bankrupcy to keep my primary home?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Roger J Bus (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Debt Relief Law Center
Most likely, yes. See the exemptions available for equity in real estate at 11 U.S.C. 522(d). As long as you keep up your mortgage payments, you can keep the house.
