Cerritos Wage Garnishment Lawyer

Is Your Paycheck Being Garnished by Creditors?

Wage garnishment is the court-ordered deduction of money from a person's paycheck to pay another entity or individual. It is based on a legal judgment that the money is owed. Wage garnishment continues until the debt has been paid or the person who accrued the debt has paid it off in some other way.

If wage garnishment is preventing you from paying for bare necessities, call a Cerritos bankruptcy lawyer to find out how your garnishment order can be challenged. A skilled attorney will also be able to advise you on ways to stop wage garnishment such as filing a bankruptcy petition, and other debt relief measures.

Sometimes too much money is garnished, and the person can no longer pay their basic living expenses. When this happens, a claim can be filed to dispute the court order.

Common Reasons for Wage Garnishment

When you get behind in your bills, a creditor will make various attempts to collect the money that is owed. If those efforts fail, legal actions to recover the money will usually be undertaken, such as filing a lawsuit. If it is determined in court that you owe the money, the court can order that a percentage of your paycheck go towards the debt.

Wage garnishment includes debts such as:

  • Credit card debts
  • Child support
  • Student loans
  • Taxes
