Federal garnishment

If you have a garnishment filed against you by the U.S. Marshalls from a personal judgement against you, can you file for slow pay instead of bankruptcy?

Re: Federal garnishment

There is a lot you can do besides file for bankruptcy, although bankruptcy protection can be an effective strategy, if just depends on what your goals are. I help individuals through very difficult issues like yours all the time.

I cannot answer questions, give legal advice, or quote fee rates over e-mail for several reasons. First, in order to answer questions, I may need to ask you several questions or review documents. Also, because there is no confidentiality with e-mail, some authorities have said that I would be in violation of ethical restrictions. Additionally, if you are already represented, I need to know that in order to ethically render legal advice. Finally, please understand that I make my living rendering legal opinions.

Feel free to call Karen Nickelson, my paralegal, at (901) 527-5522, and set an appointment for an in-person consultation or a telephone consultation. Karen will be glad to assist you with any additional questions about our services or fees.

I would appreciate you letting me know where you learned about me and what city you live in.
