A: This could be something that a collection defense attorney would be able to advise best on. All the categories you chose make good sense, but you await a response for four weeks. You could try reposting and adding Collection as a category. Not all posts are picked up, but you'd probably have better chances of a meaningful response there. If you still don't get a response, you could reach out to attorneys who practice in that field. You could use the Find-a-Lawyer tab above to the left, or you could conduct your own independent searches. Good luck
