Collections Law/Correction of default letter from law office

Advertisement


Question
I received a letter from law office for correction of the default.  The amount due is $13,500.  The cure amount is $930.  What is mean by "cure amount"?  In the letter, it says that if I don't correct my default by a certain date, they may exercise rights against me under the law.  What should I do?  I am really scared. I don't want to be sued or go to court.  I am willing to negociate to make some payment (but not $13,000 because I don't have the money).  Please give me an advice of what to do now.  Thank you very much for your time

Answer
Kimberly,

The best thing that you can do is go to http://www.naca.net and search for a local attorney to show the letter to. Many will do a free consultation.

I do not have enough information here to assist.
