Collection Efforts
Coverage of Collection Efforts in the Nexus archive.
- What accounts can creditors target after freezing your checking account?
A frozen checking account does not halt creditors' collection efforts. Creditors may target other accounts or assets to recover debts after a checking account is frozen.
- What happens if you're self-employed and a creditor tries to garnish your wages?
Self-employed workers are not immune to collection efforts if a creditor tries to garnish their wages, but the process works differently. Garnishment rules vary for self-employed individuals. Creditors may face challenges when attempting to collect debts from self-employed workers.
