Kaytoyoursoul Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 Hi, Patenaude & Felix fist reached out in April and I requested the letter of validation witch they replied to on 4/21. I was under the impression that they will reach out to me for a settlement. INSTEAD, fast forward to 9/20 and I get legal advertisement from lawyer who found my case being filed in court on 8/11. Since I never got served I reached out to Patenaude and they want to settle initial $2900 for $2400. That seems slightly high to me. Should I hire a lawyer and hope that they will settle for less + lawyer fees = less than $2400 or should I proceed with going through court? I would like to know what would be the optimal solution. I don’t mind going the pro se route in hopes that I would pay less in settlement. (My work permit has been delayed so I don’t have means of income or getting a job ) Thanks so much for your help!!

librarianfromcalifornia Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 Hi there -- I know this is an old post but wondering what happened with your situation, as I am in a similar situation now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackFromTheDebt Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 By “similar” do you mean the case is with a law firm and hasn’t been filed yet or do you mean they have filed? The advice I would give in these two situations is vastly different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
