My wife got the same kind of letter a few years ago about an old college credit card. We asked my cousin, who happens to work for the court where it would be heard, about hiring a lawyer and she basically told us to just show up to court - that most times the lawyers for the plaintiff didn't even show up. And if they did show up, they most likely would just dismiss since we were actually there in person.

She got a notice about a week before her court date that her case had been dismissed.
