I defaulted on a student loan from American Education Services (AES) approximately 6 years ago. The loan is now $21K, and I have started receiving letters from local lawyers stating that I am being sued by AES. I live in Florida, take home $1200 bi-weekly, and have yet to receive a summon for a court date. I am willing to negotiate but am concerned about the affordability of the proposed $450 monthly payment. My questions are: Will there be a court hearing where I can attend, or will a judgment just be made? If I get a lawyer, could they negotiate a lower monthly payment? Can I file for Chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy with this loan? Additionally, I am unsure if the loan is private or government-insured, and I am seeking legal advice and direction.

Should I wait for the order on my motion to be issued by the lower court to file the emergency motion at the DCA, and what should I do if the judge does not issue or file the written order? Additionally, can I use the situation where my opponent provided an invalid address to the court and police to file a judicial act to the clerk of the county, informing them that this is a false address, which invalidates his recording?

Can probation be violated for failing to pay restitution while the amount of restitution was being appealed in Florida, especially if the amount has now been reversed and sent back for a new restitution hearing, and the probation period is ending?

I got into an accident on September 6, 2013, where a lady hit me from behind. My bumper came apart, and I called the police. However, I was focused on my crying 4-year-old daughter and forgot to get the other party's information or take pictures. The officer gave me a report number but later said no report was filed. I called the officer multiple times without a reply. Finally, he told me to contact my insurance company. I don't want to claim my insurance since it wasn't my fault. Is there any way to obtain information about the other party?

My wife, Karla Hogan, is a Christian speaker, author, and singer with a website at www.karlahogan.org. Our 15-year-old daughter found a mocked-up photo of my wife's head on a uniform with a swastika on Google Images. How can we get this photo and page removed from Google's search results?

I won a lawsuit against a clothing company for fraud and received a monetary judgment. I recently discovered that the company's owner's brother has been selling the company's inventory on eBay for the past three years. Is it possible to file a lawsuit against the brother to collect money from him for selling the inventory? Also, is there a time limit to file the lawsuit (statute of limitations)?
