IRS Wage Garnishment Lawyer in Houston

The IRS and Wage Garnishments

Fortunately for Texans, by law most creditors cannot garnish your current wages as a means of collecting what is owed them.  However, when past due taxes are owed to the Internal Revenue Service, this law does not apply.  Wage garnishments are allowed as a way for the IRS to collect on taxes owed.  Since there is no collateral for the IRS to collect on, they often go to court to obtain a judgment in order to collect the money owed.  If you do not pay the judgment, the IRS can file garnishment laws on your wages.  If you are experiencing financial difficulty due to the IRS wage garnishment on your income, contact a Houston bankruptcy lawyer right away. The Malaise Law Firm helps the people of Houston and in the surrounding areas in Texas to stop IRS wage garnishment through bankruptcy debt relief options.

For most persons, Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy will stop wage garnishments.  There are some exceptions to the rule, so speak with an attorney about your particular case.  The automatic stay that comes the moment a bankruptcy is filed can help you get the income back that you need to make your monthly house payments or rent. The Malaise Law Firm understands that you need your paycheck and will advise you on the best course of action to take to get your paycheck back in its entirety.  The Malaise Law Firm will accurately and thoroughly complete your bankruptcy filing guiding you through the entire process.
