If a credit card sues you do you have to pay the lawyers representing the company and what do you do about the summons you receive?

If the platiff (the person/company suing) wins , you will be responsible for the legal fees. However, that does not mean they will be able to collect. Never ignore a summons from a court of any type, including Small Claims. You may have a very short time to respond. You need to seek legal advice as soon as possible if you receive a summons. Most attorneys will give you a free consultation. If you cannot afford private counsel, there are legal aid organizations that will assist you pro bono, or at a small fee.

Have not lived with husband for 4.5 years he has girlfriend you want a divorce what to do?

Get a lawyer, one you can afford. And divorce him, whether you love him or not you deserve better. It sounds as if there were problems in the first place. Go get your local phonebook and start searching for divorce lawyers. Call and get estimates like you would on buying a car, and figure out which one is best for you. If you can't afford a divorce, then try loans and such, or help from family. Someone will stand behind you!

How do you file for divorce in California if your husband is in a California State Prison when your funds are low and you can't afford a lawyer?

Information pertaining to divorce process in the state and for a list of legal aid for people with limited resources can be found at California Court Self-Help, http://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp If you and your husband are in agreement (ie no disputes over children, posessions, debts, etc.) you will be way ahead of the game. If he also wants a divorce, the best way is for you to "petition" or "sue" him and hope he does not respond. This means you file for divorce through your family law office, and serve him with the required documents. Keep in mind that filing is not cheap. If you can, explain to him that the divorce will be granted by default as long as he does not file any paperwork in response (meaning that because your husband did not respond the divorce is automatically approved.) He will thusly also save paying the large filing fees. If you have children and/or mutual posessions and you cannot agree who will get them the aforementioned process will not work. There are lots of resources to help, but it seems they never give you the whole picture at once so you'll have to keep returning with more questions.
