garnishment of wages for credit card debt

You need to speak with a local consumer rights attorney.  There are various federal, local, and state consumer protection statutes that may protect your rights and a local consumer rights attorney will be able to determine which laws apply.  Some assets maybe exempt from garnishment, and a local consumer rights attorney can determine what, if any, protections maybe available. Most consumer rights attorneys offer free initial consultations to determine what options are available. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature.
