What if My Wages Are Being Garnished?

Working to Stop Garnished Wages

If your wages are being garnished for unpaid debt, you may feel helpless to do anything to take back control of your own financial future. Garnishments can put excessive strain on an already difficult financial situation, leaving with tough decisions about whether to pay your electric bill, put gas in the car or eat dinner.

The things you need to know are that you are not alone and there are people who can help you. At the Law Offices of Farnsworth Mortensen, PLLC, of Tucson and Mesa, our team of bankruptcy attorneys, paralegals and support staff have been helping Arizona families get out of difficult financial situations for more than 20 years. Instead of letting the hole you are in get deeper by the day, take action to get your life and your paycheck back.

Taking Action to Get Your Financial Future Back on Track

When you file for bankruptcy an automatic stay ends all collections efforts, including wage garnishments. Using either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy protections, you can then work with our team to build a strategy that better matches your ability or inability to pay creditors.

At some point, when the drain on your income or savings seems never ending, it is time to talk to a professional. Make sure that professional has your best interests in mind when offering solutions to help you deal with wage garnishment and other collections efforts.

There are real predators waiting to prey on people in dire financial straits. When you are choosing a lawyer or financial professional to trust, particularly when you are already being aggressively pursued by creditors, make sure you work with someone who provides dependable personal service, who has decades of experience, who offers more than a one-solution-fits-all approach and who has a long standing staff of friendly professionals.
