Re: garnishmen

Th garnishment must be based on a judgment against you. You can stop the garnishment by filing a motion for installment payments in the court in which the garnishment issued. However, by such a motion you have to commit to pay a monthly amount to the creditor. So long as you pay the amount as approved by the court, the creditor is prevented from garnishing your wages. If you dispute the balance owed, you may wish to consult an attorney. Please contact me at (248) 305-5840 ot lawgreg.com with any questions.
