Bankruptcy Help to Stop Wage Garnishments:
Do you have wage garnishments? or
Have you been notified that your wages will be garnished?
I can help to stop wage garnishments by filing for bankruptcy.
- When wages are garnished 90 days before or on the 90th day of your bankruptcy filing date, these funds may be due back to the Debtor.
- However, the key is the actual date of the transfer. One court held that the date of the Writ of Garnishment is the key date.
- A judgment creditor obtains a prior right that cannot be defeated except by failing to obtain his/her judgment.
The date is not the date that the transfer of the debtor’s money took place but the date the Writ of Garnishment was issued.
In a case, the Writ of Garnishment was 91 days before the debtor’s bankruptcy filing. Because the petition was filed one day too late, the debtor lost an opportunity to recoup over $6,000 in garnished wages.
Timing of filing of your Bankruptcy Petition has serious implications. It is for this and many reasons. You need to contact me immediately.

What is a Wage Garnishment?
- It is a legal procedure in which a person’s earnings are required by court order to be withheld by an employer to pay a debt owed to a creditor.
What is your Employer Required to Do?
- When an employer receives a wage garnishment order that was obtained by a creditor/attorney for the creditor, they are required to comply.
- Within ten (10) days of receiving the garnishment order, your Employer must start withholding your wages (garnishing your wages) and remitting payment to the Sheriff’s Office/Court Officer.
- Failure or refusal of your Employer to comply, could result in your employer being liable for your debt. (So, you know they will comply)
- Your employer is powerless to stop the wage garnishments – it is beyond their control.
What Earnings Can Be Garnished?
- All personal earnings including wages, salaries, commissions, bonuses, and income from a pension or retirement program, but does not ordinarily include tips.
