Wage Garnishment Defense Lawyer in Indianapolis

Are Your Wages at Risk of Garnishment?

Garnishment is one of many actions creditors use to collect from debtors. Indiana state laws limit the amount that creditors can take from debtor's paychecks, which is up to 25% for most net wages. Wage garnishments are orders from the court agency and are sent to the debtor's employer.

Creditors will receive a set amount from the debtor's paycheck that their employer is forced to withhold. Wage garnishment can make it so that you are not able to fully support yourself and your family.

Protect Your Assets with Bankruptcy Law

Are you facing overwhelming debt and the possibility of wage garnishment? Bankruptcy law may offer a solution to help protect your assets and provide you with a fresh financial start. At Jackson & Oglesby Law LLC, our experienced bankruptcy attorneys can guide you through the process and help you understand your options.

Benefits of filing for bankruptcy include:

• Automatic stay: As soon as you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay is put in place, which halts all collection actions, including wage garnishment.
• Asset protection: Depending on the type of bankruptcy you file, certain assets may be protected from creditors, allowing you to keep your home, car, and other important possessions.
• Debt relief: Bankruptcy can help eliminate or reduce your unsecured debts, such as credit card bills and medical expenses, giving you a fresh financial start.
• Debt management: If you don't qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to create a manageable repayment plan to pay off your debts over time.
