Wage Garnishment

Stabilize quickly, protect take-home pay, and move toward a durable resolution.

Garnishment active? Deadlines move fast. The sooner we act, the more options we have.

What we do

Immediate triage: contact the IRS/state to request a hold or reduced withholding where appropriate.
Employer coordination: communicate professional instructions your payroll/HR can follow.
Relief options: evaluate installment agreement (IA), currently-not-collectible (CNC), or other paths.
Prevent repeats: map a compliance plan so the garnishment doesn’t return.

If information is incomplete, send what you have—we’ll prioritize the rest.

Request holds/reductions and clarify employer instructions.

Assemble income/expense, filing history, and hardship support.

Pursue IA/CNC or alternate relief; confirm agency acceptance.

Set reminders/estimates so you stay compliant going forward.

It depends on timing and the agency’s response. We act immediately and work with your employer to implement any approved changes as fast as possible.

Not necessarily. Many cases qualify for installment agreements or hardship-based relief that reduce or pause garnishments while you get compliant.

Yes. With your authorization, we’ll coordinate with HR/payroll to ensure they have correct, current instructions.
