If you file for bankruptcy, you can get the money back if the total amount taken by a single creditor is more than $600.

It can take one to four months for your bankruptcy lawyer to accomplish this.

You will need to file for bankruptcy quickly, because the right to get the money back only lasts for 90 days from the date it was seized.
