You've Been Sued
If you've been sued on an old collection or credit card account. First of all, don't panic. Just because you've been sued, doesn't mean you have lost. It doesn't mean that you can't defend yourself, and it doesn't mean that you can't win. It just means that the process has started and you will have to participate in order to protect yourself and your interests. For more information on how to protect yourself if you have been sued
