Mere minutes before trial was set to commence on September 21, 2009, Citibank's lawsuit against my client brought by their attorney debt collectors Hunt & Henriques was dismissed. The lawsuit was brought in San Jose Superior Court and sought over $6,000 plus interest, attorney fees, and costs. I personally flew to San Jose for the trial, and was handed the dismissal as trial was set to commence.
Always consult with an attorney if served with a debt collection lawsuit. California residents can contact my office for a free consultation. Ignoring a lawsuit will likely result in a quick default judgment, allowing the debt collector to garnish wages, levy bank accounts, and place liens on property. I can be contacted via telephone at 858-679-3396 or email at psmith@paulsmithlaw.com. Residents of other states should visit the National Association of Consumer Advocates to locate an attorney in their state.
