Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I am served with a summons and lawsuit?

If you are served with a summons in conjunction with a lawsuit, it likely means that you have been named as a defendant in that lawsuit. Generally you will have twenty (20) days to respond to that lawsuit or you will have a default judgment entered against you. You should contact an experienced attorney as soon as you are served with the documents so that he or she will have sufficient time to formulate and file the necessary response.
