Who does Galaxy International Purchasing collect for?

GIP has clients in several states, including Nevada, California, and New York. It collects debts for its customers and for itself on accounts it has acquired. The company also goes by Worldwide Asset Purchasing II, LLC and Galaxy Portfolios, LLC, among other alternate names.

GIP’s representatives will call you even if you do not recall opening an account with them. They may be collecting a loan on behalf of the original creditor or an old debt that the creditor sold.

Respond to a debt lawsuit against Galaxy International Purchasing, LLC

The law allows debt collection agencies to sue consumers who fail to pay their debt. In most circumstances, they will have attempted to reach you to collect the debt multiple times before they file a lawsuit. On receiving the lawsuit, you must take action to prevent GIP from getting a default judgment in their favor.

A debt lawsuit begins with a Summons and Complaint. These court documents notify you of the case and list all the specific claims against you. You must respond with a written Answer before your state’s deadline.

If you fail to respond before the deadline, Galaxy International Purchasing will request a default judgment against you. If the court grants it, the judgment may give debt collectors the right to garnish your wages, seize your property, and freeze your bank account.

Avoid a default judgment and respond to your debt lawsuit against Galaxy International Purchasing. It’s simple—just follow these three steps:

  1. Answer each claim listed in the Complaint
  2. Assert your affirmative defenses
  3. File the Answer in court and send a copy to Galaxy International Purchasing, LLC

Below, we’ll explore each step a little further. Don’t like reading? Check out this video instead:

1. Answer each claim listed in the Complaint

The Complaint document lists all the allegations GIP has against you. The first section of your Answer document should focus on replying to each claim. Just use one of the three following responses.

  • Admit: You agree with the claim GIP has outlined
  • Deny: You want GIP to prove that the allegation they've made is true
  • Deny due to lack of knowledge: You cannot answer accurately because you don’t understand the claim

Lawyers and debt specialists advise debtors to avoid admitting to all the claims. This move allows you to hear GIP’s arguments in supporting their claims. The court may dismiss the case if they do not have enough evidence.

Respond to your debt lawsuit in minutes online.

2. Assert your affirmative defenses

This section allows you to explain why you are not responsible for the debt. You get to explain why you should not pay all or part of the debt. Here are examples of affirmative defenses you can use:

  • The debt amount is inaccurate
  • The GIP debt is past the statute of limitations
  • GIP hasn't proven they bought the debt from the original creditor
  • The debt was canceled or paid off
  • You were a victim of identity theft

Notably, saying that you do not have the money to pay the debt is not an acceptable defense. It may do more harm to your case.

Make the right defense the right way.

3. File the Answer in court and send a copy to Galaxy International Purchasing LLC

Regardless of how convincing your Answer is, it is only useful if you file it in court on time. Hence, ensure you send your Answer before the deadline. After completing your Answer, make three copies. Send a copy to the court, another to GIP lawyers, and keep the last one in your records. Make sure you send them via certified mail with a return receipt requested.

SoloSuit files your Answer for you.
