Can collection agencies garnish your wages?

Collection agencies cannot garnish wages or seize property. They can refer the deliquent account to a collection attorney who can file a lawsuit. The attorney must be licensed in the debtor's state and the lawsuit must be filed there. If the lawsuit is won, a writ of judgment can be issued. The writ can be executed in the form of wage garnishment, bank account levy and seizure of nonexempt property. There are collection firms such as Mann Bracken who are also collection attorneys, they handle accounts from large banks such as Bank One/Chase. MB has been authorized to act as an arbitration collector, which differs somewhat from traditional lawsuit action. ("Macky" macky83@juno.com)
