Being sued even tho I'm paying
by Rob
(California)
I received some papers stating that a debt collector is suing me for the amount of 25k even though I have been paying them every month for the past year and a half now. I even received a letter from them this July saying that my payment agreement was approved until the debt is paid off. Now I might lose my job because of this. What should my next step be? I am thinking of counter suing them for what they are doing.

Debt collectors are not required to accept whatever you can afford to pay. However, the fact that you have a written payment agreement with this collector (smart move, by the way) may change things here. We would definitely recommend you free consultation with a consumer law attorney to find out what your options are. Will you let us know what happens?
