Personal Debt

Courts may order wage garnishment when you fall behind on credit card, medical, consumer, or personal loan debt payments.

Child Support

When you fail to meet support obligations you could lose up to 60% of your disposable income.

Student Loans

Most student loans are federal debt. If you default, garnishment can happen without a court order.

Federal Taxes

Mounting a successful wage garnishment defense against the IRS can reduce your tax debt and stop the collections process.

Exemption

When garnishment prevents you from meeting your basic needs, California wage garnishment law may permit you to request an exemption.

Bankruptcy

Filing for Chapter 7 protection ends collection actions and can discharge unsecured debts, while Chapter 13 helps secure better repayment terms and avoid garnishment.
