Get yoself an attorney, and file for exemptions from garnishment under Code of Civil Procedures 701.830, etc.
Federal bankruptcy law can provide swift and economical relief, and preclude garnishment of 25% of your wages and/or attachment of bank accounts. Filing bankruptcy may be an excellent option to best protect your family's welfare.
This answer (as well as our Web site) doesn�t address all facts & implications of the question; it�s general info, not legal advice to be relied upon; it creates no attorney-client relationship; it may be pertinent to CA only; it�s independent of other answers. Hire legal counsel before acting or refraining from bankruptcy/legal action.
