Best Answer

One of the best ways to postpone when an Answer must be filed is simply to contact the Plaintiff's attorney (or the Plaintiff herself, if she does not have an attorney and has filed in pro per or pro se) and ask for an extension. Usually a reasonable extension will be given, especially if you advise that you are in the process of finding legal counsel or are willing to discuss settlement.
