Re: wage garnishment

After a repo, you still owe the balance after sale. If a creditor has a judgment against you, a garnishment can be filed.

If the amount you owe is large, a bankruptcy may eliminate the debt. If that is something you are considering, contact my office for more details.

I agree with Glen. I do not do bankruptcies but you may want to consider it. Good luck.
