The Automatic Stay: How It Protects Your Wages
When you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay is put in place that immediately halts wage garnishments and other collection efforts. This legal protection can prevent creditors from continuing to take your wages until your bankruptcy case is resolved. The automatic stay also stops foreclosure, repossessions, and creditor harassment. If you are struggling with garnishments, filing for bankruptcy can give you the time you need to get back on your feet financially. A stop garnishment attorney can help you navigate this process and ensure that your rights are fully protected under the stay.
What to Expect After Filing to Stop Garnishment
Chapter 7 bankruptcy offers a direct path to IRS debt discharge for qualifying back taxes. This chapter provides an opportunity to wipe out IRS debts, as long as certain conditions are met, such as the tax return being filed on time. A tax debt attorney can help determine which taxes are eligible for discharge, making it easier to achieve tax relief. In many cases, Chapter 7 offers quick resolution of IRS debt, allowing for a fresh financial start. This solution is often ideal for those seeking bankruptcy and tax relief with limited income or assets.
