East Orange, NJ asked in Foreclosure for New Jersey

Q: My house in Ocala, FL was foreclosed and sold in 2007. Got wage garnish judgement in 2020. Next best course of action?

The application is on a DJ docket number so the case has been closed. How can I resolve this matter best, as I cannot afford to lose my wages or afford $158,000?

A: if you already have a wage garnishment against you, bankruptcy would likely be the most viable option to wipe out the debt and remove the garnishment. schedule a free consultation with bankruptcy attorney to discuss your options. most of us bankruptcy attorneys offer free consultations and flexible payment plans.
