What is bankruptcy and how can it help me?

Answered by attorney Margaret L. Evans (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Margaret L. Evans, PC
Student loans are generally non-dischargeable - period. If the bulk of your debt is credit card debt, then bankruptcy will offer a chance to have that debt discharged so that you can get a "fresh start". Also, the automatic stay protection in bankruptcy prevents any creditors from taking any action against you during the pendency of the bankruptcy.

How do I get garnishment portion over $3000 returned after Chapter 7 was discharged?

Sorry, the money that was garnished before you filed bankruptcy doesn't get refunded to you. Your bankruptcy trustee could reclaim this money from the creditor to use it to pay your other debts, but you aren't entitled to get that money back.
