If the ccourt already made default judgement, is it too late to work something out with attorney?

A law firm representing a credit card company that I have a debt with has already been to court and won default judgement because I did not contest it. I know now that this was a mistake. With their default judgement they are able to garnish my bank account, however they froze the assets of the incorrect account. I contacted the attorney and I offered to work out a payment plan. He said he would wait to hear back from the incorrect bank and give me a call to set up a payment plan. Is this still possible? Will they be willing to work with me or is he misleading me?
