Why did I Receive a Lawsuit on this Account?

We have been working on behalf of people just like you for many years.

Over all that time we have not been able to pinpoint an exact reason why the creditor decided to file suit. Every creditor has different policies on when and if they sue and those policies seem to change from year to year.

There is absolutely no way to predict or explain why your particular creditor has proceeded in the fashion that it has, but rest assured you are in good hands with Harold Shepley and Associates, LLC.

The creditors have thousands of people working for them across the country, you deserve to have us working for you!

More information about debt relief is available on our Debt Negotiation page.

I Received a Lawsuit. Why Should I Defend it?

The decision to defend or not defend is up to you, but without question the best choice is to defend your lawsuit.

  • At Harold Shepley and Associates LLC, our Litigation Department has the experience you need to navigate your lawsuit through the Court System and obtain the best result.
  • We understand the importance of your situation and we keep the cost at a minimum while obtaining the best possible outcome.
  • If you choose to defend we will work to prevent a legal judgment from being entered against you.

If you choose to not defend, your account will go to a legal judgment unless a response is formally entered with the Court or you appear for your hearing (depending on which Court your suit was filed in).

If your lawsuit goes to a judgment, the creditors have enhanced rights on your account and have the right to move forward on that judgment. That is why you should contact Harold Shepley and Associates, LLC and defend any and all lawsuits you may receive.

here is no reason the stress of a lawsuit should ruin your life. Talk to our debt relief specialists, the consultation is free. Call us today at 877-827-9006 or use our easy-to-complete contact form. Our attorneys will be delighted to speak with you.

What Can a Creditor Do With a Legal Judgment?

As stated above, a creditor has enhanced rights on your account once a judgment is obtained.

  • A creditor, using the Court System, can execute on any judgment they have against you.
  • Typically an execution will result in the creditor finding and placing a “freeze” on your bank account.
  • During this time you may not be able to access your bank account and some of your funds may be garnished.

In addition, any judgment against you will result in a judgment lien against any property you own which will place even more power with the creditor.

At Harold Shepley and Associates, LLC, we understand the needs of our clients and we work to prevent judgments from being entered against you. This is why we highly recommend you defend any and all lawsuits you may receive.

If you currently have a judgment, it is not too late. Contact us and we will provide a comprehensive outlook on your individual situation and help you deal with any debt related issues you may have.
