Mr. A owes me money. He says after I sign a release and give it to Mr.B (mutual associate), he’ll pay me the money back. My questions are:

· If Mr. A does not pay me the money after I give the release to Mr. B, how easily can I get the release back from Mr. B?

· Assuming I can get the release back, is the release void? Do I have to go through some process to invalidate it?

Q: Do you see any safe-path that I can take to go through what Mr.A demands?


A: Yes. Avoid Mr. A and Mr. B and all their cohorts.

How about if I give the release to an attorney before Mr.A pay me back the money? If yes, do I need an agreement from the attorney?

How about you and Mr. A go together to visit your attorney. Then, while in the attorney's office, you get CASH from Mr. A and then sign whatever release is necessary.

Pay the attorney for an hour of his time.
