You should hire a lawyer to defend you immediately. That you have 20 days to respond shows that this is NOT a small claims case. There is an entire business model for debt collectors based upon getting judgments by default or poor self lawyering (which is 99% of pro se litigants), and defending yourself is typically a trap.
