Wage Garnishment Lawyer in Arizona
Creditors in Arizona, per the debt collection process, have the right to garnish wages of those who do not fulfill the obligations of debt. In other words, if you owe a person or a lender or bank money, they can bring a lawsuit and obtain a court judgment against you.
When a judgement is obtained, refusing to pay the judgement allows the judgement creditor to then start a process of wage garnishment. In Arizona, there are few ways to put a stop to a garnishment. A person could argue that income is exempt or a wage garnishment would result in extreme hardship. Occasionally these arguments are successful, but another option is to file for bankruptcy which would immediately stop a garnishment in place automatically.
Before garnishing wages, a creditor must get a judgement against an individual. This, unfortunately, puts an even greater burden financially on anyone already in a debt financial situation.
Arizona Zero Down Bankruptcy attorneys have helped Arizona residents stop wage garnishments, and help eliminate or reduce debt. Our legal team is committed to working with clients to obtain debt relief. If a creditor has a judgement against you or a wage garnishment is looming, call our law firm and discuss your specific case with an attorney.

Legal assistance to Stop a Garnishment
Many times Arizona residents don’t even realize that either a judgement has been put in place against them. We have helped clients with some nightmare scenarios resulting from a garnishment. For example, checking a bank account balance and finding that a paycheck has been garnished, and money they were counting on is not there. Or, instead of a full check amount, you find you you have been paid 1/4 less than your typical wage. If you do find yourself in a scary situation regarding wage garnishment, contact Arizona Zero Down Bankruptcy right away.

Once established, legal garnishment allows creditors to remove money from your account. A legal garnishment will be attached to each paycheck until the judgement is satisfied. Obviously a powerful tool used by creditors to collect debt from those who owe money, wage garnishment is a very serious legal matter. Call Arizona Zero Down Bankruptcy law firm for assistance.
WAGE GARNISHMENT FAQs
Bankruptcy protection: Automatic Stay
Bankruptcy triggers the automatic stay protection
Both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy filings trigger the automatic stay. This action stops creditors from any collection activity, including wage garnishment. A debtor, during the automatic stay, can take time to reorganize debt and look for reasonable solutions through Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 debt relief. Many individuals in Arizona file bankruptcy to allow them to get finances back on track. Because the wage garnishments and collections will cease, the bankruptcy filer has a full paycheck to work with going forward.
Upon filing bankruptcy, according to the automatic stay provision of the Arizona bankruptcy code, a creditor must immediately cease-and-desist from:
- Pursuing a wage garnishment, filing a wage garnishment, or continuing an existing wage garnishment
- Initiating a lawsuit
- Continuing to pursue an existing lawsuit
- Placing a lien against a home or other property
- Attempting to collect any debt (no more harassing phone calls or correspondence regarding the debt)
Why it is important to immediately stop a wage garnishment
Usually, a wage garnishment is only one part of a person’s financial crisis. Potentially one may be facing possible home foreclosure, vehicle repossession, liens on property, and missing necessary monthly bill payments. A wage garnishment can be devastating to anyone with debt and an already bleak financial situation. Literally, a paycheck could reflect up to 25% less money to pay bills if wages are garnished.
