Yes. The banking institution does not know an account is subject to levy/garnishment until the order is served. In a few instances the account holder will have minimal notification (24 hrs). However, once the order is served no action can be taken by the account holder to protect the funds. An exception in some cases is a joint account where only one person is the named judgment debtor and/or an account contains funds that are exempted under state or federal law. If such is the case the account will be 'frozen' until it can be determined what percentage of the funds belong to each account holder.

Wages should not be garnished prior to a court order. You should be able to argue before a judge that you do not owe a bill because a man did not complete the work.

How long can a insurance company request refunds?

If you received money that you were not entitled to and you deposited the insurance check into your bank account and the money was a payout from an insurance claim, the insurance company can swipe the money out of your account without your prior knowledge for up to 3 years. If you received money as a result of a criminal act, the statute of limitations for that crime would guide the insurance company's timeline.
