I just have received a civil summons regarding a credit card debt that still is within the SOL.I have not ever spoke with the attorney on the telephone, nor has the attorney ever sent me a debt collection letter in the mail. The debt was charged off by the original creditor this year(April). I researched the attorney and found many complaints about their office on the internet. I belive the attorney has bought the the debt (which according the complaints they do buy debt), but is stating that he is representing the credit card company(plantiff, according to the summons, when he is not. Is the attorney processing this correctly? I mean is legal for a collections attorney to sue you for debt even if they have not sent you anthing in the mail or talked with you on the phone? Since the account was charged off by the original creditor, could they still get an attorney to sue me? I live in NC.
