What We Do

When you're sued for medical debt, we don't wait. We review the lawsuit, identify errors or invalid charges in the bill, file your legal answer before the deadline, and build a defense. A timely response is the single most important thing that can happen right now, and it's what we do first.

  • Review the summons and confirm your response deadline (typically 20–28 days from service)
  • Examine the underlying medical bill for errors, inflated charges,and documentation gaps the hospital or collector can't close
  • File your legal answer before the deadline, the single step that blocks a default judgment
  • Build the defense to challenge the bill's validity, the collector's standing to sue, and any misrepresentation in the filing itself under FDCPA §1692e

    Common Problems We See

    • Default Judgment Risk: No response means the court rules against you automatically. The collector wins without proving a thing.
    • Missed Deadlines: Courts rarely grant extensions. Once the window closes, your options shrink dramatically.
    • Wage Garnishment: A default judgment allows collectors to take a percentage of every paycheck until the debt is paid.
    • Bank Account Levies: Collectors with a judgment can freeze and drain your bank account.
    • Bills You Don't Recognize: Medical debt is frequently sold between collectors. The entity suing you may not be the one you originally owed.
    • Inflated or Inaccurate Amounts, The figure in the lawsuit may not reflect what was actually owed, and that matters in court.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Our Team is always happy to help.

    I got court papers and I do not understand what they mean. Where do I start?

     The court enters a default judgment against you automatically. This gives the collector the legal right to garnish your wages and freeze your bank accounts.

    How long do I have to respond?

    Deadlines vary by state, typically 20 to 30 days from the date you were served. The clock starts the day papers were delivered. Every day you wait narrows your options.

    What if I already missed the deadline and a judgment was entered?

    A default judgment may be vacatable depending on the circumstances. We can review your case and advise whether there are grounds to reopen it, but the sooner you act, the more options exist.

    Do I have to go to court myself?

    Usually not. Our attorneys can appear and file all required documents on your behalf in most cases.

    How much does this cost?

    Your consultation is free. We offer flexible payment plans and will walk you through every option before any commitment is made.

    Don't Let the Deadline Cost You Everything.

    A lawsuit isn't a final outcome, it's an opening. But only if you respond in time. Our attorneys file. Let's use the time you have left.
