civill matter
A person that I had known for approximately two weeks payed off $6,500.00 worth of my credit card debt. I gave him the number of the law firm to which I owed a settlement as he stated that he had a lawyer and that he would like to help. He contacted the law firm and ended up paying the amount specified above. I was not under the impression this person was actually going to pay off the entire existing debt. With this said, he simply told me to pay him back what I could and when I could...but to just ''hang out with him and get to know him better.'' So I ended up telling him that I just want to be friends and the relationship can go no further than that. He now wants me to pay him back the $6,500.00. I contemplated getting a loan so I can pay him back the entire amount, however, I want to be sure that I have all of this documented well in writing before I give him any sort of money. Can somebody please give me some advice? Thanks!
Re: civill matter
Thank you for your inquiry. When you pay him off, have him sign a receipt that indicates it is payment in full for the debt/loan and that he releases you from any and all other claims through the date of the receipt. If you want legal representation to draft a receipt and a release, please feel free to call. Good luck.
