Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Oklahoma

Filing Arbitration
Over three years ago I was employed by a company (in OK) that had to have a debt collected. I owned 2% of the company (a DE co.) w/signing authority. The attorney was prepaid to file process with strict instructions not to deliver services exceeding the retainer. During process I became medically incapacitated. During that period she contested the debtors bankruptcy without authority. When asked to witdraw, she refused citing inability to halt the process. 3 years later I work for another company, own no stock in 1st company and live in another state (WA). The attorney has informed me she is filing Arbitration against me personally, as the company has since been dissolved. Does she have rights to do this or have the possibility of a judgement if I ignore her citing no current affiliation with the DE Company

Re: Filing Arbitration

Do you have that request to withdraw in writing?

The issue of whether you are still responsible for the OK company is probably an OK question. There will be an OK statute on the issue. Look it up.

In WA officers can be liable for two years after the effective dissolution date of a corp., subject to certain exceptions.

If the lawyer is suing you here, you have to respond accordingly. For heaven's sake don't ignore her, that will get you defaulted. Rather, lawyer up.

Hope this helps. Elizabeth Powell
