So, today my dad received a mail stating that there is a restraining notice placed on his bank account. He had a Boa CC/Fia card services that went to collections, and he was sued but he never got the court papers so the judegement was defaulted. the amount is $5000, is there anyway he can contact Boa to settle it for less?, he barely had anything in his checking account since my dad ha snot been working for awhile. There is a lawyer who is representing BOa, shud he contact them to see if he can settle for less? any advice helps.. thanks!!! my dad just want to be done with this.
My dad does not speak very good english, is he able to have a Attorney contact the attorney to offer a settlement of the judegment? can my dad still contact Boa/Fia Card services to settle with them? since the judgment was granted to them.
