Debt Collection Legal Questions and Answers
Debt Collection
Debt Settlement Agreement
Florida
Can a debt settlement agreement be transferred?
I recently received an offer from a creditor to settle a debt I owe. However, due to my current financial situation, I am unable to make the payments they are asking for. I am wondering if I can transfer the debt settlement agreement to another party, who would be able to pay the debt in full.
Diane D.
Probably not. You wil need to talk to the creditor.
Contracts
Note Payable
New York
I need to sue on an unpaid promissory note
The note was written back in March 2019 I hired an attorney and he has done nothing for me! I made tons of requests to try to settle out of court with this man and he just keeps blowing me off
Matthew S.
You need someone who will attempt to settle the matter for you and if that fails be prepared to sue on the note and take the necessary action to collect. This assumes the debtor has assets to collect against. It can take a while. I have had some folks pay relatively promptly, others several years. Communication between attorney and client is very important in this process. If you have no idea what is going on in your case you can get very anxious. I make sure you get consulted on each development and you get copies of each filing.

Demand Letter
Maryland
Negotiating after a demand letter?
I recently received a demand letter from an individual who claims I owe them money. I am interested in negotiating a settlement outside of court, but am unsure of the best way to go about this. I am looking to get advice from a lawyer on how to proceed in order to reach a mutually beneficial agreement.
Kimm M.
As a general rule, the best approach would be to either send a letter in response that proposes the settlement terms you desire, or to call the individual and negotiate by phone.
Debt Collection
Lien
California
My brother paid off the mortgage loan of my parent's home in California in Jan 2021. In return the ownership was transferred to his name. However, in mid 2023 a lien was put on the property for $80K. We had no idea who filed, after talking with my father he told us that could be a judgement for him to pay back for the "zeek reward" scheme that he joined from more than 10 years ago. Is that legal for the lien to be on the property now that my father is not the owner?
The house is an investment property with renters, my father lives in one room and we do have a rental agreement with him. He manages the property since my brother and sister who are the owners of the property are living in different states.
Joseph M.
If the judgment was against your father and not you then you should be able to fight the lien.

Creditor rights in debt settlement agreements?
I recently entered into a debt settlement agreement with my creditor, but I am worried that my rights may be violated during the process. I am concerned that the creditor may not abide by the terms of the agreement, or that they may not provide me with the full protections that I am entitled to under the law. I am hoping to get some clarity on my rights as a debtor in this situation so that I can protect myself.
Diane D.
Without seeing the settlement agreement, there is no way to tell if your rights, or what you believe to be your rights, are covered. Also, if they don't abide by the contract, you can take them to court.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
