Short answer, no. Many states do allow a charging order, but the entire premise of the llc is to protect business assets and allow the business to continue to operate. A charging order simply garnishes any distributions from the llc, but the company's bank account belongs to the company, which is its own entity.

That said, there are circumstances where you can "pierce the veil" of corporate secrecy if you have a strong enough case to convince a judge that there is either fraud or that humanity will be irreversibly wronged (the Oklahoma principle) if you can't open up the llc, but it's a tough sell in most states including mine because the entire llc concept is to allow people to separate their business and personal lives.

If you own a ccorp that owns a llc and your personal account is linked to the llc account since you will pay taxes at year end anyway can you move funds from the llc to your personal account legally?

The c corp needs to issue a dividend or pay you a salary. It's important not to co-mingle funds. (you might want to talk to your accountant about this)

Can a federal credit union garnish disability?

Banks do not place liens or garnish your paychecks (your employer would have to do that). However, if a garnishment is received by your credit union, they have to freeze any liquid funds in your account at the time the garnishment is received and send the funds to the court (by law). This is regardless of the source of the funds.


Can creditors garnish joint savings accounts if one party on the account is not named in lawsuit?

In most states, creditors can garnish any account joint or not as long as the person they are trying to collect from is on that account. Sorry. The non debtor account holder should supply proof of the amount of funds held in the account that belongs to them. The court will then decide which funds are subject to levy. An exception to the levy of joint accounts is if the account is held by a married couple in a state that recognizes Tenancy By The Entirety of personal property, in such a case, the account cannot be levied when only one spouse is the debtor.

Why would a creditor garnish a bank where I don't have an account?

This begs curiosity as to why you would be aware that the creditor attempted to garnish an account where you have no accounts. Prior to serving garnishment of an account, the creditor will need to know that you do have an account or accounts at the bank. This is typically verified by the legal department or a skip tracer. If no account exists, or if there are no funds available to attach, the creditor will be notified, but there is no reason for a bank to notify you if no account exists. If you have no account at a bank, for all intents, you do not exist to the bank.
