Can a debt collector garnish wages if they did not give you 30 days notice?

Normally, the creditor needs to sue you first. Once the court enters a judgment, then the creditor can garnish your bank account or wages.

If we did not reaffirm on mortgage after filing Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, can we walk away from the mortgage?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kevin W. Bruning (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Bruning & Associates, P.C.
If what you say is true and you have not reaffirmed the mortgage, or done anything else to resume personal liability on the loan (e.g. refinancing or something like that), you should be able to walk away from the mortgage without concern of a deficiency judgment being levied against you if you received a discharge in your Chapter 7 case. The length of time you have in your home varies greatly depending on your bank and the law firm the bank has hired to do the foreclosure suit; an experienced foreclosure defense attorney may be able to extend the time you have in your home for a reasonable fee well below what you would save in the time period it takes for the foreclosure to finish. Often, though, the process will take between nine months to a year in Illinois without interference.
