Stop Wage Garnishment

End a Wage Garnishment

In Arizona, creditors have the right to garnish the wages of those who fall behind on unpaid bills. This is per the debt collection process in Arizona. If you owe a person, a bank, or a company money, they can bring a lawsuit against you and obtain a court judgment against you.

Once a judgement in obtained, should you refuse to pay the judgment, the judgment creditor can then start the process of garnishing your wages. In Arizona, there are few ways to stop a garnishment. One method of stopping a garnishment is that you can argue that your income is exempt or that you will suffer extreme hardship. These arguments are occasionally successful. As a last resort, you may also file for bankruptcy which immediately stops the wage garnishment in place against you automatically.

Hence, creditors must get a judgement against an individual before getting a garnishment. Unfortunately, getting your wages garnished is an increased burden on people already in a tough financial situation.
