It�s not so much that a creditor can seize those assets, but they can freeze them pending your defense that that is what they are. At the very least you could be inconvenienced and possibly bounce checks.

When you have difficulty paying your debts, it is helpful to consider a bankruptcy which may eliminate them with no payment.

I trust this answers your question but feel free to call or e-mail me on a free initial basis.
