Best Answer

Garnishment is a last resort of creditors and in most cases cannot happen overnight. The garnishment process has to be brought before a judge and he or she has to agree to its implementation. A creditor cannot garnish your wages without first giving you notice. The amount of lead time and the exact process vary from state to state. Talk with your creditor about other solutions remember for them wage garnishment is a last ditch recourse
