Take Your Life Back
Garnishments can complicate an already perilous financial situation. When you are struggling to make ends meet, having your paycheck or bank account garnished may make it impossible to pay your bills or stay afloat financially.
If you have been threatened with a lawsuit by a creditor or your wages or bank accounts are being garnished, call Bishop & Associates, L.L.C., immediately. We will help you put a stop to garnishment and get a fresh start on your finances with bankruptcy.
Stop Garnishments With Bankruptcy
If you have outstanding bills, creditors can sue you to collect the amount you owe. You will receive a notice that you are being sued, which will include options for stopping the garnishment. If you ignore the notice, a judgment will be entered against you. In Colorado, if a creditor obtains a judgment against you, up to 25 percent of your disposable income may be garnished. Additionally, your bank accounts may be garnished.
To increase your options for stopping debt collections, it is important to contact an experienced Fort Collins garnishments attorney as soon as you receive notice that a garnishment may be levied against you. At Bishop & Associates, L.L.C., we will help you explore your options for stopping garnishment, including bankruptcy.
When you file bankruptcy, the automatic stay goes into effect and any lawsuits or garnishment actions must stop. Additionally, bankruptcy will stop creditor harassment and repossession and foreclosure. Our lawyers will immediately contact your employer and banks to let them know that the garnishment has ended to ensure that it stops.
