Can I be sued for credit cards taken out in my name but not by me?

More details to this question:
My adult daughter opened credit card accounts in my name without my knowledge or consent. She charged up huge balances. As soon as I found out I disputed the charges and the credit card account itself but the dispute was denied. Now I'm being sued for that debt. Do i have any recourse??

You must involve your adult daughter in your defense. She must explain what happened and how you were duped. How long did it take before you were made aware of the debt ? and how long before you notified the bank ? these timeframes are crucial. Ed Dimob, Esq, 732-797-1600
