Wage garnishment allows a creditor to obtain a court order following a judgment to force a seizure of your payroll directly from your employer.  It's especially powerful because a garnishment order makes your employer (or anyone that owes you money) personally responsible for the payment.  If they don't garnish your wages, THEY owe the money.

​

This money is taken from your paycheck even if you can't financially survive.  Your garnishment occurs without consideration of the effect on your budget and family.

​

If you find yourself in this situation, an experienced Wage Garnishment Lawyer experienced with these matters can possible work out a solution for you.
