I had a Judgement placed against me in 12/09/1997 the statute of limitations here in florida to collect is 20 years. Since the time of my divorce in 1996 ..the repossesion of my car and the judgement being placed...I have since opened up my own business..barely making it but it is mine. Anyway I have recieved a notice ot appear in January ...with bankstatemsnts..tax records..etc ..I would like to try to offer a settlement..with them allowing me to make payments...but do not know how to go about it..they have an attorney of course representing them..the debt is for 8000 so not to many attorneys in this area want to mess with it. What do I do..i do not want them to garnish my business checking account..which is minimal but is needed to run the business...and i do not want to file bankruptcy They sold the car which I voluntarily turned in for much less then what it was worth...and what the judgement is for is the difference of the loan plus attorney fees
SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVISE HERE.. i RECEIVED AN ORDER TO APPEAR FOR A DEPOSITION IN JANUARY AND NEED TO KNOW IF IT IS POSSIBLE TO STILL MAKE A SETTLEMENT WITH THEM
