AngryandBroke Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 My JDB paid around $1500 in arbitration fees, filed a debt collection counterclaim, and still caved to a settlement of our FDCPA claims before the arbitration scheduling conference. A non-disclosure agreement exists, however the dismissal of the court case with prejudice is public record.Arbitration worked perfectly for us, especially as was able to represent my wife in relation to the arbitration. Read the advice here and on other forums and make the most of it. This can be a working and very successful legal strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobk4me Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 It's significant that you were able to represent your wife in arb. That would never be allowed in court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngryandBroke Posted September 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 This s a followup to that other thread. I owe a debt of gratitude to the members here and on the other board, especially TrueQ, fr the great advice and support.Here in Oregon it's not permitted to represent your spouse in court, although the judge may have some discretion. In JAMS arbitration you can be represented by anyone you choose.I would say that neither the wife nor I are broke any more, and my anger has been appeased. This has been a great learning experience, and ultimately very satisfying. To be honest I'd like another go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
