Can a payday lender take money from your salary?

No, not in normal circumstances (which represent over 99% of cases).The basis of a payday loan is to borrow money that you need now and pay it back with part (or all) of your next paycheck. As part of the process, you give the lender the right to debit your checking/savings account (either through EFT or a post-dated check).If that lender is unable to collect (e.g., insufficient funds in the selected account), they will make subtle collection attempts (e.g., keep trying to debit the account, since the borrower gives permission to do so) and standard collection attempts (under the rules of the Federal Debt Collection Practices Act, FDCPA).If, over time, the lender believes that (1) the borrower will be able to pay them back and (2) the case is strong enough to warrant a civil judgment, that payday institution may sue the borrower. Assuming they win, as part of the judgment, the court MAY garnish wages, however, that usually does not happen.


Can you can make a payment arrangement to stop garnishment of wages?

Garnishment of WagesYes, you can make payment arrangements with almost anyone to whom you owe money. In fact, they would probably prefer that to the giant pain in the ass garnishing wages can be. Companies, health care professionals and even the IRS are willing to set up a payment arrangement with you. However, to be sure you don't miss a payment and force the creditor to "call" the whole amount (try to force you to pay in full), they may ask for checking account information so they can take it out on the day of the month you tell them is best.1. All creditors/ collectors will threaten to sue you and garnish your paychecks. I would suggest, first look up you r state laws and a little bit of common sense before getting afraid. For example, no one can garnish your disability allowance, Social security Income, no one can garnish you if you are self employed or un employed.2. More and more banks try to settle matters out of the court, as they also know that jobs are unstable and property is losing value these days, so things like garnishment or lien on mortgage doesn't help them much.Don't feel that you have to agree to all they say. Go ahead and negotiate, they will agree to it. I recently had a friend who was in a similar situation. He had a debt of some $20000 with a Credit card. He was being garnished, the bank gave him an offer to settle out of bank. They finally agreed on the following terms. $50 a month for next 5 years. THATZ IT. So, the point here is, if you are being garnished, dont let your chances of negotiations go by.


Can a Credit Card Collection Agency put a lien or judgment on your credit and if so what does that mean?

If the collection agency works in tandem with a law firm (which is the case most of the time) then the answer is yes. What does this mean? If a judgment is granted by a judge, then it is the age old saying, pay me now or pay me later. Anytime your credit is ran (over the next 20 years) then it will show and credit will not be granted until the judgment is satisfied. Keep in mind if a judgment is granted interest probably continues to accrue until satisfied. If at all possible, it is best to inter into a stipulation agreement with the firm and work it out.


How do you put a judgment on a credit report for somebody that owes you money?

First you start by filing against the individual. After which if the courts find in your favor the following will apply. A judgment is issued by the court. Highlighting "judge" in the word judgment. It then is the duty of the courts to record all judgments.Yeah but just because you may have won a case or "judgment" I don't think that automatically means...that person has a judgment on their credit? I think there maybe be further actions or steps that must be taken in order for that to happen? Am I wrong???I won the case and judge ordered 2000 expense. Now my lawyer had to file the judment in the court but I don't know what is the next step. I am exasted and running out of money fasttt!!THERE ARE COMPANIES LIKE LEXIS NEXUS AND MANY OTHER OUT THERE THAT HAVE ACCESS TO ALL COURT FILINGS AND THEY REPORT ALL JUDGEMENTS, BKs, LIENS, ANY PUBLIC RECORDS TO ALL 3 CRAs. YOU HAVE TO DO NOTHING ELSE BUT GET YOUR JUDGEMENT IN COURT AFTER THAT IT BECOMES A PUBLIC RECORD.We won a judgment in court awhile back, but there was no place on the form for the defendant's social security number. The only address we had for her was her work address, which is where we had her served. I have wondered if there was a way we could report the judgment to the credit bureau ourselves (we have her social security number). If we can't, I don't really see how this would ever get on her credit report.After you obtain a judgment, you must then obtain what is called an abstract judgment. You then take the abstract judgment down to the county clerks office and record the abstract judgment. You can obtain an abstract judgment generally 10 days or so after the judge rules in your favor and the case has become final (i.e all appeals have been exhausted). The recording of the abstract judgment will cause it to be placed on their credit and must be recorded every 10 years (in Texas).

How do you collect on a court judgment?

First be sure the judgment is docketed in the state docketed judgment index, so that it becomes a state-wide lien on all the defendant's real property in the state. Next serve the defendant with an Information Subpoena. This is a list of written questions the judgment debtor has to complete and send back to you. It will list all of his/her bank accounts, other assets and job location so that you can grab them and garnish the wages. The small claims court (Special Civil Part) has forms for this. In the regular Superior Court the papers must be prepared by the plaintiff and submitted to the court.Once the location of assets and job is known more papers are prepared and given to the court constable or sheriff who goes out and puts liens on them or serves the job with wage garnsihment papers.

How do you choose a garnish?

First, garnishes should always be edible even if you don't mean it to be eaten. You don't want to serve a plate and then tell people not to eat something on that plate. Next, it should add color to the plate. If your dish is mainly green, parsley wouldn't be an interesting garnish. Also, the garnish ideally should reflect some aspect of the dish. Often people garnish with a sprig of the herb used in the dish. If you really want to go all out, try carving a pretty design out of a vegetable to act as a garnish.
