I deposited an insurance proceeds check received to repair my house. To my surprise a garnishment order from the thirteen judicial circuit in an for Hillsborough County, Florida for $4,120.07 was executed and the TD Bank held $8,240.14. I understand that under Florida State Law I can claim an exemption (section 222.11 (1)(c). What can I do? Are there any other remedies that can be implemented?

You will likely need to spend some money to hire a lawyer to address this and keep the creditor from taking advantage of you and to minimize you botching things up further.
