Here’s what to do if you’re sued by Holloway Credit Solutions

Fortunately, debt collectors don’t turn to lawsuits immediately. However, if Holloway Credit Solutions has tried contacting you for long enough, they might file a lawsuit against you in an effort to collect the debt.

Getting a lawsuit Summons in the mail is stressful, but ignoring it can make the situation much worse. If you don’t respond to a lawsuit by filing an Answer letter in the allotted time frame — usually 20-30 days, depending on where you live — the court will likely issue a default judgment against you.

Essentially, this means that if you don’t respond in time, the debt collector wins automatically. You really don’t want that to happen!

If you have a judgment against you, Holloway Credit Solutions can ask the court to garnish your wages or take money right out of your bank account. But if you can settle your debt before getting a court judgment, you keep your options open for negotiation.

To see why this matters, let’s look at an example.

Example: Benny and Joseph each receive a lawsuit Summons from Holloway Credit Solutions. Benny decides to ignore the summons and hope the debt goes away. The court issues a default judgment against him, and within a month, part of his paycheck is being withheld to pay the debt. Joseph decides he wants to keep his options open, so he uses SoloSuit to send an Answer letter. However, going all the way to trial isn’t a great option for Joseph or the debt collector, so Joseph decides to try to settle the debt. He uses SoloSettle and offers to pay a little more than half the debt immediately if Holloway Credit Solutions agrees to drop the lawsuit. It works, and Joseph can now move on with his life with a new peace of mind.
