Attorney To Stop Wage Garnishment
If you are being threatened with wage garnishment by a creditor, filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy will prevent further action by your creditor or employer. You will continue to receive full wages earned throughout the legal proceedings. In the event your wages have already been garnished, the money is often not sent directly to your creditor. Your employer may be holding the money, pending the outcome of the bankruptcy. You are entitled to recover all of the money held in the account.

What If Your Wages Are Already Being Garnished?
If there is a writ filed to prevent wage garnishment, your employer may be withholding your earnings, but not sending the money directly to your creditor. After all, your employer doesn’t know how a judge may rule and your boss doesn’t want to be charged with contempt. The money may be held in a kind of savings account and can be returned to you after your bankruptcy has been discharged. But, you have to fight to get it back. Let us help.
