WADGE GARNISHMENT FOR UNPAIND HOSPITAL BILL by: Debtcollectionanswers
Yes, they can garnish your wages, but they must sue you first, win the lawsuit and get the court's permission to collect on the judgment against you through garnishment. Other options for collecting the judgment include taking money out of your bank account or putting a lien on an asset that you owe.
If you are concerned about the possibility of having your wages garnished or if they are already being garnished, I recommend scheduling a free initial evaluation with a bankruptcy attorney right away. Filing for bankruptcy will stop lawsuits, prevent garnishment, halt any existing garnishments, and give you an opportunity to work with the attorney to figure out how best to deal with your debt.
