Yes you do. If you fail to appear, they could take the case to court and a summary judgment could be issued against you (TRANSLATED: Whatever you owe the creditor will become immediately due and payable, and any chance you may have had at getting that amount reduced, or getting the interest rate reduced, or getting a payment plan, is now gone). You could also be penalized for failure to appear.

if you want a chance at winning or having your debt negotiated then you should appear. the mediation is to work with you on repaying your debt in an affordable way for you. if you want the other party to automatically win then don't show but remember a summons to appear is a court order not a court request and can result in a failure to appear.

The judge is trying to clear his calendar by finding a way to get the parties to resove this amenably. If you don't show up it will not be received well and the opposing counsel may very well file a motion for summery judgment or if there is something in your answer that prevents that, the courts will set a trial date.

Unless you pay them off, yes. Communicate with them, it helps. Listen to what they have to say. Don't be defensive, it really helps.
