I have no job. I go to school. I live with my girlfriend. What do I say in court for a debt settlement?

Asked by a user in Jacksonville, FL - about 3 years ago.

Are you and your girlfriend both listed as defendants on the lawsuit? Regardless, you may want to fight the lawsuit. At least make the debt collector prove that it actually has authority (standing) to bring the lawsuit. You should contact your local legal aid clinic to determine if you qualify for free legal assistance.
