The real problem here is that Northern will sue you, in NYC Civil Court, if you stop paying. How can you defend yourself?
The law says that the NYC Civil Court does not have a long enough arm to reach beyond the five boros of the City, unless there are some very special conditions present. They are not present here, but you need a lawyer to present this defense to the court.
I have done this enough times that I have to charge only (a) to verifyo that you are not a New Yorker, (b) change the name of the victim from the last time I did this and (c) three trips to court: to file the papers, for the first hearing (when papers are handed up to the judge) and for the oral argument. That's how I do it inexpensively. I make this "guarantee:" if the case is not thrown out of court immediately, I will maintain the defense of the case without charging an additional fee. (I'll explain how this works if you contact me.)
