We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

How to beat a garnishment case?

You may request a hearing to contest the garnishment, especially if you believe the debt is invalid or paid. Keep records of payments and communications with creditors. Consulting a legal professional can clarify your rights and possible defenses. Respond promptly to court notices to avoid automatic wage deductions.

What is the most they can garnish from your paycheck?

A creditor may not garnish more than 25% of your wages per pay period. For individuals earning minimum wage or near minimum wage, you must be left with an amount equal to 30 times the Maryland minimum hourly wage.

What is a motion to dissolve the writ of garnishment?

This motion requests the court to release funds held by the garnishee. Ensure the motion is properly drafted and filed within the deadline to avoid losing the chance to dissolve the writ. Keep copies of all documents and proof of service for your records and any court hearings.

Is there a way around garnishment?

If wage garnishment means that you cant pay for your familys basic needs, you can ask the court to order the debt collector to stop garnishing your wages or reduce the amount. This is called a Claim of Exemption.

How do you write a hardship letter to stop a garnishment?

I am writing to formally request that you stop the wage garnishment currently in place against me. Due to [insert reason, such as financial hardship, medical issues, or job loss], I am unable to meet the garnishment payments at this time. I have attached relevant documentation to support my claim.
