Facing a Credit Card Lawsuit?

Many lawsuits are built on weak documents, missing proof, or debts that are too old to collect.

Understanding Credit Card Lawsuits

Credit card lawsuits often rely on incomplete records or inaccurate balances. When you know how these cases work, you can challenge them and protect yourself.

1
Inflated balances including hidden fees and attorney charges
2
Debts that are past the legal time limit for collection
3
Missing proof of ownership when debts change hands

More than one collector chasing the same account

Ignoring the lawsuit usually leads to a default judgment, letting collectors freeze accounts, garnish wages, and damage your credit score.

How We Defend Credit Card Lawsuits

Defending a credit card lawsuit requires a multi-layered approach. Our attorneys combine legal expertise, procedural knowledge, and negotiation skills to protect you and challenge any unlawful claims.

Case Review & Immediate Action

We review all documents and notices, ensuring deadlines are met and preventing creditors from gaining an early advantage. Immediate intervention allows us to stop harassment and lay the foundation for a strong defense.

Challenging Proof of Debt

Creditors or debt buyers must prove they legally own the debt and that the balance is accurate. We scrutinize every document, transaction, and transfer history to identify errors or omissions that can result in dismissal.

Statute of Limitations Defense

Many credit card debts are too old to be legally collected. If a debt is beyond the legal collection period, we file defenses to dismiss the lawsuit entirely.

Procedural & Service Defenses

Errors in service of process, notice delivery, or court procedure can make a lawsuit invalid. We leverage these mistakes to protect your rights and prevent default judgments.

Negotiation & Settlement

When dismissal is not possible, we negotiate fair settlements or payment plans that reduce balances and prevent long-term credit damage.
