I need to contact the attorney that is suing me over a CC debt, I want to settle, how should I word the letter?
I have an outstanding debt with a CC company. They have already filed suit against me. I cannot afford an attorney so I have tried to correspond as best as I am able, but I find myself hopelessly tardy in getting all the correct documents to the right people and to the right addresses.
So I figured I would send them a formal letter stating that I am willing to settle. I don’t know how to word this letter. I am unsure of the legal jargon needed to address the law firm. I also don’t know what amount to offer them. Does this letter have to be officially served?
The total amount of the debt is 42.90. This amount includes all the "FEES" assessed by the creditor. Obviously this is not the amount they will ask for once a judgment is issued against me for legal fees court etc…… I know that the original debtor was willing to negotiate with me, but I was in a near Fatal car crash and was unable to deal with any type of billing issues, much less
anything else.
Please help……. Thank you
