Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Pennsylvania

This week my paychecks began getting garnished for a Cingular Wireless bill I am being accused of cosigning for 8 or 9 years ago. I have no recollection of ever doing this, I do remember the girl I supposedly co-signed for, she was a friend of a friend. Now I have this attorney saying that I was contacted in 2004 and I apparently said this was my girlfriend...this also never happened. Now I have a $9,000 Cingular Wireless bill attached to my name and my wages are being garnished at a very inopportune time. What steps can I take to get this debt removed?

Since wages cannot be attached for this type of debt in PA, I assume you work in another state. In any event, a bankruptcy will not only stop the wage attachment, it will eliminate the debt.

Feel free to call or e-mail me with any questions.
