I would make the attorney aware of the situation and ask them to fix it. If they refuse, contact me at www.kliszlaw.com and I may be able to help you out. Tim Klisz

Re: garnishment
Has the garnishment hearing occurred yet? If not, then go to the garnishment court date and bring proof of the fact you paid the debt in full. If the date has passed and your wages are being garnished, then contact the attorney and see if they will refund the excess funds taken from you. If not, I'd be happy to speak with you about what to do, I take Bay City cases (based on your zip code)
