Review List

This review list is provided to inform you about the document in question and assist you in its preparation. Assignment of wages is a serious matter and an excellent tool to collect a judgment, especially a small one. The leverage in the agreement is the Assignor will sign for a small monthly sum to avoid judgments or close to judgment awards from being attached to his house and/or car and then being foreclosed upon. The Assignments are common in child support matters these days. However, in that instance, the government, or the governmental body, will prepare the forms and serve them upon the Assignors employer, who has limited rights, under most state laws, to object to said payments.
