If you are unable to make payments on a loan, a creditor can seek court approval to have your wages garnished. If they are successful, they can take up to 25% of your wages. You can stop this drastic action from taking place, but you must act quickly. At Danton & Smyk, we offer clients sound advice on their options for stopping wage garnishment, including:
It is important to remember that bankruptcy will not protect you from wage garnishment for certain types of debt. For example, overdue child support and student loans are not covered under the protections of bankruptcy.
