A judgment writ by a creditor cannot be used to garnish Social Security benefits of any type. (This does not apply to child support or tax arrrearages, or in some instances personal injury awards). However, if said benefits are commingled in an account with non exempt funds, that account can be "frozen" by the court for a decision on how much of the monies are eligible for levy. A Social Security beneficiary should never hold funds in any account where there is a question as to protection and/or ownership. Please be advised, even though the judgment debtor's income may be exempt it does not mean that the judgment creditor cannot use other methods to collect the monies owed, (property liens, bank account levy, seizure and sale of non exempted personal property).

Will I lose my retirement accounts or payments from social security if I file for bankruptcy?

Generally, no. Retirement accounts that are ERISA-qualified aren't considered property of an estate and cannot be taken. Social Security benefits are generally protected from assignment, or garnishment for debts in bankruptcy. The Social Security Administration's responsibility for protecting benefits against legal process and assignment usually ends when the beneficiary is paid. Once paid, the benefits continue to be protected only as long as they can be identified as Social Security benefits. For example, money in a bank account where the "only" deposits into the account are direct deposits of Social Security benefits are "identifiable" and generally protected.
