More details to this question:
I thought my daughter was covered but she was not. She ran into the back of someone whose bumper was bent and walked away with no injuries. Paragon Subrogation soon contacted me and initially said I owed 6000. I started paying. But now they changed and said I owe 30000. I stopped paying. Can they take me to court? Can they garnish my check?

They can only garnish your check after they have sued you and gotten a judgment. If they obtain a judgment, you can file a slow pay motion asking the judge to determine how much you should pay each month. This will stop any garnishment.
