A creditor can not seize your account unless: 1) They are also your bank and you signed agreements allowing "right of offset" where the bank can take funds from your accounts to satisfy delinquent loans you have with them. 2) Your creditor obtained a court order allowing them to attach funds or place a levy on funds.

If you owe money at a bank can they still seize funds if you deposit a check from someone who also holds an account there into your checking account at a different bank?
To clarify, I owe money at US Bank for a defaulted credit card with them. I have a TCF checking account. If I try to deposit a check made payable to me, and that check happens to be a US Bank check, can US Bank seize the check made payable to me even if I deposit it into my TCF checking account? Not sure if they will see that US Bank funds are made payable to me from someone else's account. Any insight would help! Thanks!

What property can a judgment creditor attach if you do not own real property or vehicles and the only money in your checking account is from regular wages?
They can garnish your wages. Texas only allows a judgment creditor to garnish wages if the creditor has no other options available to execute the judgment. A judgment creditor can levy a bank account including a joint account or a joint marital account. Regular earned income (wages) deposited into a bank account are NOT exempt from creditor seizure. The creditor may also seize and liquidate any non exempt assets belonging to the debtor (bonds, stocks, jewelry, livestock, a specified amount of tools of trade, in some cases household furnishings, etc). Texas is a community property state, therefore, it might be possible for the judgment creditor to seize joint marital property even if only one spouse is the debtor. Some income, however, cannot be attached by creditors or persons who prevail in a lawsuit. For example, disability income, Social Security income and military retirement income cannot be garnished or attached by a creditor.

This depends on state law regarding lienholders, not bankruptcy law.
