Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

Arbitration Claim

If a judgement is awarded against me for non payment of a a credit card debt, what can be done to recover the money?

My main concern is that I am guardian of my daughter's estate, and I'd like to know if that money can be touched.

They can't touch your daughter's estate because it's not her debt.

Only your assets can be reached. Wages cannot be garnished. Homestead is protected. They can garnish a bank account or seize any other non-exempt assets. There are many exemptions for debtors in Texas.
