"My husband had some dental work done at an office that I use to work at. His
work ended in Novenber of 2006. Every since then we have made payments
to pay off his account at the office. We have never had a set amount to pay
every month. We missed June and July and possibly August. I spoke with the
office manager in September and she said that we needed to make
arrangements to pay off the debt. I told her that starting on the tenth of that
month we would start sending in money. We payed on the 10th of Sept and
October and she called me in October and told me that we needed to make a
better arrangement. I told her that we would at least pay her 20 dollars a
month and we have ever since then. We just got a letter in the mail saying
that they were going to send us to collections and I can not find any law on it.
We have no written agreement and a verbal agreement to say that we will pay
at least $20 a month which we always pay more. Can they legally send us to
collections in the state of WA?"
