Stop Wage Garnishment

If you at risk of having your wages garnished or are already having your wages garnished filing a case under the Bankruptcy Code can stop this. It is important you seek legal counsel to have the garnishment stop. Wage garnishment can be devastating to you and your family.

Filing For Bankruptcy Stops Wage Garnishment

Upon filing for bankruptcy, your attorney will send notices to your employer and creditors that will cease wage garnishment.

Sometimes it takes time for the notices to reach the proper parties, so money might continue to be taken from your paycheck for a period of time. However, if your wages are garnished after the bankruptcy filing, that money must be returned to you.
