Q: Can I use the money i have to pay contractor suing me in civil for attorney? I am going thru bankruptcy at the moment?
I have tried to settle out of court and have offered paying more. They want payment for work never done to home.
A: Your inquiry requires more information. Are you in a pending bankruptcy? If so, is it Chapter 7 or Chapter 13? Did you include the contractor as a creditor in your bankruptcy? Please provide more information in order to receive an appropriate response.

A: I'm confused. You're being sued for work never completed? You're going to pay for work never completed? Resolve this with a qualified local attorney. Good luck. [I litigate cases.
