Expert Advice When You Need It Most
What kind of attorney do I need to retain in order to answer a lawsuit from a credit card company?I know that this a very specialized area of law and I don't know under what heading I would search. I need an attorney to answer a summons in reference to a lawsuit filed against me. The plaintiff's attorneys represent a credit card company. I live in Broward County, FL. Any recommendations to local attorneys would be greatly appreciated. Or can a paralegal help me with this? Thank you for any help. Attorney answers (2)

Debt Collection Attorney in Orlando, FL.
Go to www.NACA.net for a list of consumer protection attorneys. This type of practice is listed as "Collection Defense" or "debt collection defense". There is at least one excellent NACA atty. who defends these actions in Broward County. Good luck.

If there were any illegal issues raised in the manner that the debt was sought to be collected, you may have a Fair Debt Collection Act claim. Otherwise, if you just believe there is a dispute as the charges, you can use a business litigator to advise you as to the manner in which to defend.
