STOP LAWSUITS / JUDGMENTS
AGAINST YOU
Creditor lawsuits against you can leave you feeling helpless. This
is especially true when you know that you owe the money and you WANT
to pay it off. You might be tempted to do nothing about the lawsuit.
After all why fight it, right? That will just cost even more money,
right? Wrong! If you live in or near San Antonio and you are facing
creditor’s lawsuits, call me for a free debt consultation. You may
not realize that you have many rights under the law that can protect
you. You also may not realize that doing nothing can have serious
consequences.
What happens if I do nothing?
If you do not file an answer to the law suit, the plaintiff (the
entity that brought the suit) can ask the court for entry of a
judgment in the amount stated in the complaint. If no amount is
stated, the plaintiff has to put on proof of the amount of damages;
generally unless you answered the complaint, you cannot participate
in the hearing to set the damages. That means that you could
actually end up paying more money than you expect.
But there is something that you can do that will put a stop to this
nonsense. One of the most obvious answers is bankruptcy.
Will bankruptcy stop garnishment on a judgment against me?
Bankruptcy will stop garnishments on your wages after you file.
Wages earned before the filing may be recoverable from the creditor
if those wages would otherwise have been exempt.
The only possible exception concerns child support collections: in
such cases it depends on what chapter bankruptcy case is selected
and whether the support first came due before the commencement of
the case, etc.
-Bankruptcy can stop judgments.
-Bankruptcy can protect property.
-Bankruptcy can get rid of debt.
-Bankruptcy can take off the pressure.
