FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What should I do if I receive a summons in California?

Act immediately, you have only 30 days to respond. Contact The Fullman Firm for a free case evaluation. Ignoring legal papers leads to default judgment, allowing wage garnishment, bank levies, and property liens. Our California attorneys will file a proper response and defend your rights.

Key actions: Respond within 30 days • Don’t ignore papers • Free consultation available • Prevent default judgment


What happens if I ignore a collection lawsuit?

Ignoring a lawsuit results in automatic default judgment. The collection company can then: garnish up to 25% of your wages, freeze and take money from your bank accounts, and place liens on your property. The Fullman Firm can prevent this by defending you properly. Even with an existing default judgment, we may vacate it and reopen your case.

Consequences: Default judgment • Wage garnishment • Bank levies • Property liens


Can collection companies take money from my paycheck in California?

Yes, but only after winning a court judgment. They can garnish up to 25% of your disposable earnings. The Fullman Firm can defend you before judgment occurs or challenge existing garnishments. California law provides strong protections against excessive wage garnishment.

California limits: 25% maximum • Must have judgment first • Some income protected • Head of household exemptions available


Can they freeze my bank account?

Yes, after obtaining a judgment. However, certain funds are protected under California law including Social Security, disability, unemployment, and pensions. The Fullman Firm can fight bank levies, help you claim exemptions, and challenge the underlying judgment.

Protections: Social Security exempt • Disability exempt • Unemployment protected • Can claim exemptions within 10 days


How much does it cost to hire a lawyer for a collection lawsuit?

The Fullman Firm offers affordable flat-fee pricing with flexible payment plans through ClientCredit. Checking eligibility doesn’t affect your credit. Most clients save far more than our fees cost, we regularly settle for 20-40 cents on the dollar or get cases dismissed entirely.

Benefits: Flat fees • Payment plans available • Often save more than legal costs • Free consultation


What is the statute of limitations in California?

Four years for most financial claims from the last payment date. If sued after this expires, you have a complete defense, but you must raise it properly in court. The Fullman Firm can determine if your case is time-barred. Note: making a payment can restart the clock.

California limits: 4 years for most claims • Must raise as defense • Payment restarts clock • Applies from last activity


Can a default judgment be reversed?

Often, yes. California allows default judgments to be vacated if you were never properly served, have a valid defense, or proper procedures weren’t followed. Time limits apply, so act quickly. The Fullman Firm has successfully vacated numerous defaults for California consumers.

Grounds to vacate: Improper service • Valid defense • Procedural errors • Time limits apply


What are my rights under California consumer protection laws?

California’s Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act gives you the right to: be free from harassment, demand proof of claims, dispute inaccurate information, stop collection calls, and sue for violations. Certain income is protected from garnishment. The Fullman Firm specializes in using these laws to defend consumers.

Key protections: Anti-harassment • Right to demand proof • Income exemptions • Can sue for violations • Stop contact rights


How quickly should I call after receiving legal papers?

Immediately. You have only 30 days to respond, this deadline is strict and unforgiving. Missing it means automatic default judgment. The sooner you contact us, the more options we have to defend you. Our free consultation helps you understand your options without obligation.
