Debt Collection

    Lien

    Many people are acquainted with “liens” in the context of a security interest granted over an item of property to secure the payment of a debt or performance of some other obligation. It may also be created through a judgment entered by a court or, in some cases, by merely voluntarily signing a document.

    The Law Offices of Edward P. Graham, Ltd. will deliver legal services designed to maximize recovery. Our staff attorneys have experience in post judgment collection activities including garnishment, levy, and attachment. Contact the attorneys at the Law Offices of Edward P. Graham, Ltd. to assist you in reclaiming the judgment you have been awarded.

    Garnishment

    While a lien is a claim that attaches to specified property of a debtor, garnishment serves as a means of enforcing the lien and satisfying the debt by having a third party make payments of the debtor’s assets or income directly to the creditor. The wages of a debtor/employee are usually subject to garnishment, and the employer/garnishee must comply with the terms of the garnishment proceeding or else be held liable to the creditor/garnishor. Garnishment is governed by both state and federal statutes and may not be done without providing adequate formal notice to the affected parties.

    Whether you are a debtor, creditor or third party in possession of a debtor’s assets, the attorneys at the Law Offices of Edward P. Graham, Ltd. in Naperville, IL can assist you in analyzing the prospects for garnishment as applied to your particular situation. If you are an individual or business attempting to collect a debt, our office can provide assistance filing and enforcing a garnishment action on the debtor. If you are a debtor who has received a garnishment, our office can evaluate the action to make sure it is legal and help negotiate a resolution to the issue.
