Where is the lien placed? Is it just on the card? Then filing bankruptcy should release it because the card will be gone. If it's more, then you should not file on your own and should have an attorney assist you.

What will happen if I am being sued for old credit card debt?

Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
There is nothing they can take from you but if you stopped paying the credit card over 4 years ago you might win the lawsuit by answering the complaint and putting in the answer that the debt is no longer valid because of the statute of limitations. You are eligible to have the court waive the filing fee for the answer because you are on SSI. However, you need to find someone to help you prepare the answer and it must be filed within 30 days of the date you were served with the summons and complaint. Bankruptcy is also an option you might want to explore with a bankruptcy attorney, particularly if you want to wipe out all your debts and don't want any more phone calls, letters and lawsuits.
