can a credit card co. garnish wages in pa. even if they get a judgement against you? What are PA wage garnishment laws?

Hi Sandra,

As far as I know, Adoption assistance falls under the Social Security Income. Thus, as Social Security cannot be garnished, Adoption assistance too may not get garnished. Still if you want you can check http://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/ssact/title04/0474.htm for more details. You can also get free advise from an attorney regarding this.

Thanks,

Aaron

I have been on SSDI since 1996 from a car accident that left me paralyzed. I receive SSDI $667.00 and SSI ($27.00. I received a notice from Texas Child Support that my SSDI will be garnished for $144.00. I've always paid a portion of my child support every month. I've never missed a payment. Can they really garnish my SSDI?

I have read and read how it is ilegal to garnish someone but what about the hard working entrapaneour who has struggled to get a very small business going, goes into a contract to lease with the option to buy an equipment that could have been used for profit. The debtor goes into default. The case in won in court in favor of the plaintiff and the defendant still did not pay the amount due. What rights are there for the other side?

Hi, Heather. It seems like you didin't finish what you were going to say...."I was able to make.." Well....in the state of PA a CA/ company can't garnish your paychecks, but, they can take out of your bank account. Does the CC company have your bank account information, etc.? I won't give it to them if they don't have it. The 'judgement' documents should have a court date on htem (if it's a legal document). If you can, i would show the document to a lawyer and see if it's legal. You'll be surprised how some documents LOOK legal, but, they are not.

My understanidng of this is that is the account is a joint bank account they are not allowed to take the funds unless both of the people on the bank account are also on court ordered judgement. i.e. if your wife has student loans and is sued for not paying but the husband was not listed in the lawsuit and his name is on the account with his wife's, then they can not garnish the funds in that account. However, if she has a bank account of her own..... it's fair game.

My work place received a call triyng to verify employment for a wage garnishment. I am a single mother of two and have worked very hard for the past year to clean up my credit, preparing to buy a home. I was told about the call and after getting the run around I found out it was from a car repo that happened in 2001. I was never contacted my phone or mail. They had my address but I have never been contacted by anyone about this. They only contact I have had is when I contracted them and was only given very little info. How can it be to the point of garnishment when I have never been contacted? Also, why would they wait 11 years then try to get their money?

My employer got a thing in the mail about gashirning my wages from a law firm. I have not received nothing in mail. Can a law firm garnish my wages without going through court?

Robert:Not it if the judgment is for a debt inldcued in your bankruptcy and the creditor received actual notice. If the judgment is taken illegally, the creditor is subject to contempt proceedings in bankruptcy court and maybe other legal actions.Peter

Need protection from inalivd debt and debt collectors who use robocalls.After I got a new phone number, I got a debt demand threating court action and damaging my credit for a bill made using the phone number before I had it, and a credit card which I don't have. I informed the creditor it was not my debt. Since then, I have about three robotcalls a day. I am also getting more robocalls for other people's debt. The original biller offered to settle the fake debt for about five dollars but I won't pay it it is not my debt.There needs to be a penalty for false billing and robocall harrassment.Since that false bill, I now have three companies robocalling me each day. Except for the first company and bill, I have no correspondence from any other robocaller and will not respond without a written document.
