Question posted in the National Credit Act Law category relating to Northern Cape
I have received a Section 129 for outstanding debt. I have been busy with lawyers who dealt with Sequestration to assist me with writing off my debt. They advised me not to speak to my creditors since it could jeopardize my application for sequestration.Now I'm facing summonsing from one of my creditors lawyers and my lawyers advice me not to ignore the Section 129. I don't think that's wise.What is the right way they should be assisting me?
