Freeze on Checking Account with Garnishment

My sister's husband had a car repossessed about 7 years ago. Today their checking account was frozen but the collectors on the car. What does she need to do to get the account unfrozen?

Without knowing all details, there is generally one answer - pay the debt (which is apparently now a judgment). Garnishment of wages often comes next.

Re: Freeze on Checking Account with Garnishment

The only two options usually are (1) pay the debt in full or (2) hire a lawyer to file bankruptcy. If you are interested in the second, please feel free to call me if you're in or near Atlanta.
