Stop Wage Garnishments
The constant phone calls and badgering tactics are difficult enough to deal with. When creditors begin garnishing wages, it is almost always a crippling blow to those who are struggling with serious debt problems. When one creditor begins garnishing your wages, it makes it impossible to pay your other debts, not to mention normal cost of living expenses like food, gas and lodging.
If your wages are being garnished, or if you think you are in danger of having your wages garnished, contact us as soon as possible. Our Indiana bankruptcy attorneys have a wealth of experience helping clients stop creditor harassment and find relief from serious debt. When you file Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, we can stop wage garnishments immediately. If you have a wage garnishment, we will file your bankruptcy as quickly as possible to stop the drain on your income.

The Automatic Stay
We can help you file for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which will trigger the automatic stay.

Of course, when you are granted your discharge in bankruptcy, the garnishment efforts stop forever.
