I am being sued for a credit card debt collection. I received papers on 4-10-13, dated 3-25-13, and it says I have 30 days from the date on the papers to respond. I don't understand the papers and have no idea what to do. I cannot afford to hire a lawyer. What should I do?

I hired a lawyer in 2011 to represent me. We have a signed agreement. However, the lawyer moved his law office located in Westchester, New York without informing me. The lawyer is not taking my calls. Is there any way I can find his new law office? I want to send his office a letter using a mail delivery confirmation service, so I have it on file that I made an attempt to contact the lawyer. Ultimately, I will end up suing the lawyer. However, for now, I just want to locate his new office and send him a letter.

I recently got married to my husband who has a drug felony on his background. My lease currently includes myself, my two daughters, and a friend. Is it possible to remove my friend's name from the lease and add my husband's name since he is my husband and the father of my children? If so, where do I go to have it changed and does it cost anything? Additionally, how can I prove to public aid that my husband lives with me if the landlord won't add him to the lease?
