You can petition the court to modify or eliminate the garnishment based upon financial hardship. You will have to prepare an extensive disclosure of your assets, income, and expenses. Many communities provide free workshops or clinics to assist people with things like this. You might locate a number for this service at the local courthouse. Also, there might be self-help books at the library or bookstore, or other resources online. Good luck!
