and never paid it off. The law firm wants to garnish my wages if I go to court (I am trying to settle with them out of court). How much can they garnish my wages? I live pay check to pay check. All but about 300 dollars a month goes to things I need to live such as rent, elec., gas, phone, food, gas for car etc. Do you think if I submitted an itemized list of what my monthly expenses are to a judge he'd would allow them to take 25% of my wages? (The lawyers claim they will get 25% of my wages until it’s paid off) If they take 25% I will loose everything. To me it doesn’t make any sense that a judge would allow them to take so much of my money that it would cause me to become homeless and loose my job. If I loose my job then they don't get paid off. What should I do? Settle out of court? Or should take a chance that a judge will see that I am poor and don’t have the means to pay it off?
