Let sleeping dogs lie?

Hello all, new guy here. I believe I am a little late jumping into the game but I'm reading everything I can here and am excited about trying to repair my credit.

My Sob story:

I bought a house 5 years ago and quickly realized I had over extended myself. In an effort to try and ease my financial burdens, I signed up with a company called "Credit Solutions of America." The plan was to let all of my CC accounts go delinquent, save the money I would have otherwise paid toward the CCs and then after a set time negotiate with the OCs for a lower pay off rate in exchange for removing any negative TLs from my credit report.

Long story short, I never came up with the money to pay off the accounts and now have 4 charged off accounts on my credit report. About 2-3 years ago I received summons for at least two of the accounts and I have paperwork showing an arbitration judgment from NAF for one of the CCs I received a summons on. However, I only have one judgment listed against me on my CR.

I am afraid that If I start disputing with the CRAs regarding one of these accounts that they may research and find that I have judgements not listed on my CR. I may do more harm then good.

Is there a way to find out what judgements I have against me so I know which TLs to dispute? I suspect I have more than that one.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I am filling out the paperwork to request a Choice Point report now and will check out pacer.com right after.

In the meanwhile I have a few accounts that were closed in good standing but have 3-4 late payments each. I assume I can safely dispute those in the meantime :).
