<prompt> Human: To further expand on the situation: A lawyer is sort of taking the role of an intermediary and the lawyer tells me he has the hardcopy of the deal, but due to circumstances cannot send me a copy of the document for the past few days. The lawyer assures me everything will be fine and to go ahead with the payment to the collections agency.What I have are: Assurances by the Collections Agency over the phone Assurances by the lawyer over email Documentation of the same deal, but with an expired deadline. New unseen deal supposedly updates the deadlineEDIT: My fears: To not technicallylegally settle my debt after the payment My settled debt sold to another agency through human error down the road  <response>: Do not send money till you have everything in writing.How much is the debt, I am curious on why you got a lawyer instead of contacting them yourself for the same outcome.
