How do I get my attorney to respond and address my concern?

Is it possible that perhaps your attorney has not seen the emails? Maybe they went to his junk mail or spam accounts? Also, maybe his emails are intercepted by his assistant or paralegal and kind of getting lost in the shuffle some how? I guess with no response in email form I would pick up the phone and make an appointment to come in if you cannot talk to him directly at that time. Its worth a try! Good Luck!

Oh - that is a good thought!! Perhaps that is what is happening?!?

Good luck and please let us know if you hear from the attorney, filed.

I agree the lawyers who come on here and give the advice they do are incredible.

I do not advise using emails to contact your lawyer. I discussed this in one of my old posts. You need to call him/her. You will likely be charged either way and one email leads to another. Call and get all your questions answered in a way you understand. Could save you a bundle.

1. This is probably a question you should have asked at the time you initially reviewed your petition.
2. So long as the creditor is listed in the Schedule of unsecured creditors, it really doesn't matter, there is no special requirement to list judgments in a unique way.
3. Realize, to actually vacate the judgment, you will need to file the discharge with the state court...that is YOUR responsibility.

really fied and here you have it from the "horses" mouth . i'm certain hhm has seen it hundreds if not more times and this is the process. again, as i stated before, as long as it's listed you will be fine.

although you can file the motion yourself after the discharge, i just want to reiterate, for us, anyway, it was best to have an atty do it. we didn't use the same atty as for the bk, as we found some that was a bit more reasonable and did an excellent job. it's not that the motion is difficult to file, but it also needs to be recorded.

Miknan, really????, the past 3 attys we used were via email ONLY. i think we only met, maybe once. emails stand up in courts nowadays and when something is in "writing" many times that is far better for courts to distinguish as opposed to he said she said. i think also many of the "newer" attys are more computer savvy and prefer correspondence in that fashion as it also less time consuming. and, remember, it works both ways, when an atty puts something in writing there is it is for everyone to see.

also,many times atty charge more for another office sit down then if they just sit down at their own time and answer one's question. i know it's a bit hard to get use to, but with all this social media and computer communications it has changed the face of doing many types of businesses.

Thank you, HHM, for the reply. FWIW:

#1 - I told my attorney about the judgement, gave him a copy of it, and did not know he was supposed to list the creditor anyplace other than where he listed them - basically, at that time, I did not know to ask about this.

#2 - As I stated, I do not see where the creditor is listed ANYWHERE, besides in SOFA #4 where it asks about judgements. This is why I think I may very well have a serious problem, and why I have asked my attorney several times if this is a problem and if we need to do something about it before it is too late.

#3 - I will definitely want to vacate it, but, my more immediate concern is that I am now afraid that the debt will not even be discharged. This is why I need my attorney to respond.
