Awesome news. I just got hit with garnishment. Ever since my wife quit working 2 years ago. She is diagnosed with a brain tumor. Everything fell on me. We were keeping our head above water until inflation hit. Then by Gods grace,.. we were still surviving. But now my wages have been garnished. I feel like … just giving up. Committing suicide is something that I have thought about. But I just can’t do it. Man life has been hard. I wish you were in Ohio. But I thank you for this video. I’m gonna call a bankruptcy lawyer today. Thanks again. This video might be the answered prayer I’ve been waiting on.

Thank you for speaking about a bankruptcy attorney....the state of NC takes the whole 100% of anything in your account and send to the NC IRS...nobody notifies you of anything that's about to happen!

I think a lot of times the debt ower doesn't show up to court because papers were never served properly and the debt ower wasn't even aware if being sued. It's what happened to me - I never even got any papers but the debt collector says I did. It's BS.

It's been a month since I filed bankruptcy (chpt 7) but the garnishments have not stopped.. I have the collector blaming my employer and my employer blaming them. However they both received the legal documents regarding my case. What should I do next? Oh and I did file for auto stay with the collector but they still insist that it has been paid in full from the employer.. Is that possible?

If you filed Ch. 7 and the garnishments have not stopped your lawyer can file a motion for contempt in bankruptcy court and ask for damages.

What about if you have been paying your child support payments every month not only paying them but exceeding the amount you're supposed to be paying and then you get a new job and all of a sudden they start garnishing your wages and taking just the amount set in the support agreement but also charging you $2.30 each time they garnish your check? Is there a way I can make them stop garnishing my wages since I will be paying them more than what they would be getting by garnishing my wages.

The problem is that the attorney with the Default Judgment does not file the papers in the State of your employer or State of your new residence, if he knows. He sends it directly to the employer who honors the Judgment from the State of the original filing. The Foreign Judgment Act is useless, if the employer doesn't require the proper filings!

@@atlantabankruptcy What would be the outcome normally for doing this? Could my employer fire me for raising the issue? I even notified the payroll supervisor originally when she received the garnishment notice about the Foreign Judgement Act (sent her the law) and she said I had to deal with the court who issued the garnishment. It was my problem. She deals with the Judgment Creditor's Attorney, when she has questions!! Long story, but my pay is in her hands and no one is concerned about my rights!

What happens if they had the wage garnishment delivered to my parents house instead of taking to my employer or a old employer. The garnishment states to deliver it to my employer Chambers bottling company which I've not worked there for over 5 years.
@atlantabankruptcy

Assuming you never worked for your parents, they cannot honor that garnishment. However, they would be wise to respond to the garnishment stating that they have nothing to withhold - in some jurisdictions if you ignore a garnishment you can become liable for the amount claimed.

Personal Bankruptcy Law Atlanta I must of not explained things real clear. A Sheriff's deputy delivered a garnishment paper my home address my mother also lives with me and because I wasn't there to sign or receive the paper the deputy handed to to my mother. The garnishment was suppose to be delivered to Chambers bottling company which was a old employer located in Huntsville Alabama. I live in gulf shores now. Just wondering since the garnishment was delivered to me personally or delivered to my now employer should I just file this in my filing cabinet and not worry about it until they actually serve my new employer which is a seasonal job.

Now I'm may have to cancel my Health Insurance so I can at least see a decent pay check. Is it any way I can have the garnishment lowered or filing for Bankruptcy is a better way?
