I know its not what you want to hear, but your best bet is to pay the bill. The contract with Verizon is yours and she likely has no obligation to Verizon. This is a classic example of not letting other people on our accounts or "co-signing" for others is a good idea unless you are willing to pay off what they incur. You may have the option of taking her to small claims court, but even this is not a great option as the filing fees and service costs are likely $400.00-500.00 and a judgment is only useful if she has the money to pay and you can get to it.
