    I received a detailed (and legal looking) Notice of Arbitration by Federal Express today. After doing some research, I've discovered this is at best a quasi-legal debt collection attempt, and at worse, the abuse of a clause I either didn't sign for or that can't be enforced since I didn't sign it after the initial debt dispute.

    Either way, I need to know information about how to refuse this arbitration. I'm going to be moving forward with bankrupty very soon (much to my dismay, but with no income and a baby on the way, debts just can't get paid) and have no intention of being suckered into an agreement to pay that I cannot fulfill.

    I've found a couple of sites that seem to offer what I need, but I don't know what to do about Georgia law.

    Here's the main form I found, that seems to cover what I need, but I don't speak legalese, and need some advice on filling out this letter, and what to DO with it! Or where I can go to find out. I will be speaking with a lawyer soon (to give you an idea how poor I am, I'm going to have to make payment arrangements to afford bankruptcy), but I have 30 days to respond to this crap, and want to be on the ball with it.

    If you are declaring BK anyway, any arbitration agreement would be included in that too
