This is a copy of a letter I'm thinking of sending to an attorney regarding
my not wanting to sign a Stipulated Judgment he sent me.
I have agreed to a payment plan, and have been making payments. He said
he would send a payment plan, instead he sent the Stipulated Judgment.
Would you tell me your opinion of this letter from both a legal and a stylistic
standpoint?
Thanks for your help. All opinions gratefully appreciated.
One of the things I'm attempting to do with this letter is to establish my
reasonableness and willingness to cooperate. If a court case becomes
necessary I want a paper trail to show the court how willing I was to come to an
amicable resolution.

Ms.---, thank you for your kind attention to my account.
I am sincerely sorry, but I have been advised to not sign the “ Stipulated Judgment “ document, for several reasons. I have been advised that by signing it I could be limiting my potential legal options in regard to this matter in the event I decide to dispute this bill. In addition, when I agreed to make payments, I was not informed that signing a Stipulated Judgment would be part of the agreement.
I am willing to sign a payment plan that does not contain a Stipulated Judgment as part of it.
I am willing to continue the payments I have been making. I have already sent my payment that is due March 7th.
I hope this meets with your approval.
Sincerely
