Yes. The bankruptcy automatic stay acts to stop a garnishment against you (with the exception of ongoing domestic support obligations). Your attorney should help you send proper notice of your bankruptcy filing to the right parties to stop the garnishment. If a creditor continues to garnish your wages or continues to pursue you for a debt that has been included in your bankruptcy, you may be able to file an adversary complaint against that creditor for a violation of the automatic stay. Unlike Maverick Bankruptcy Law, many bankruptcy attorneys are unwilling or unable to help you with these types of bankruptcy litigation matters. This is an important consideration when choosing which attorney to hire.
