In XX/XX/XXXX, they filed a lawsuit against myself and my son. We both hired attorneys and again both attorneys requested copies of the master list ( pool agreement schedule XXXX ) showing that this loan was transferred to a trust account.
In XX/XX/XXXX, Attorney XXXX contacted my attorney ( who was hired to represent me on the loan of my son 's ) regarding another defaulted loan that was in his office on a student loan of mine.
