If I have a debt that was being taken care of by a third party debt relief company but I received a summons, whatdo Ido?

The debt owed was from a credit card. Due to the hard time I went and found outside help from a third party company and the amounts that I owed in my contract were being paid. I still have a year left of my contract and I received this summons and am unsure as what I am supposed to do. I spoke to my debt relief company and they said they are going to take care of what they can on their end but if I wanted to seek guidance from a lawyer I could.
