Bankruptcy can Stop Wage Garnishment
Wage garnishment in California is a shocking and traumatic event.
All of a sudden, 25% of your income is attached and you never see it
(up to 50% in some custody claim cases). And it all starts when a
creditor has filed a Earnings Withholding Order to collect on a debt.
Suddenly, someone who was just barely getting by, treading water,
is now missing one-fourth of their take-home pay.
There are a couple of things someone who has had their wages
garnished can do. One of them is to file a Claim of Exemption
form. This is not an easy way to go, and you'll probably want
an attorney to assist you. The standard is fairly high, but
from time to time, these allow you to decrease the amount they withhold.
One other thing you can do is hire a San Diego attorney to file
bankruptcy on your behalf. Immediately, the creditor whose debt is
being paid by the wage garnishment will be put on notice and have to
stop this attempt to collect on a debt. You can file bankruptcy,
Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy to stop the wage garnishment in California.

La Jolla
La Jolla is a wealthy seaside resort community of up to 42,808 residents within the city of
San Diego, California. Population figures are imprecise because La Jolla's borders are indistinct.
Generally the community's border starts at Pacific Beach to the south and extends along the Pacific Ocean
shore north to include Torrey Pines State Reserve ending at Del Mar, California.
Along the way La Jolla encompasses neighborhoods like Bird Rock, Windansea, the La Jolla commercial
"village", La Jolla Shores, La Jolla Farms, Torrey Pines, Mount Soledad and La Jolla Village
(including La Jolla Village Square).
