Debt Collector Judgement: Don't Ignore It! (Wage Garnishment, Bank Levy, and Liens Explained)

What happens if you have a *debt collection judgement* entered against you and you ignore it? Once a creditor obtains a civil judgment, they get a whole bunch more power to collect from you.

In this video, Arizona attorney John Skiba (The Consumer Warrior) breaks down the 4 powerful ways *debt collectors* will attempt to collect on the balance and exactly what you need to watch out for.

### The 4 Consequences of a Debt Judgement

*Wage Garnishment:* They get a writ served on your employer to withhold a portion of each paycheck. Learn how much they can take and why bankruptcy is often the only way to stop it.
*Bank Levy (Account Freeze):* A one-time "fishing expedition" to seize non-exempt funds from your bank account. We explain bank levy exemptions (over $5,000 for individuals in Arizona as of 2025).
*Real Estate Lien:* The judgment is recorded as a lien against any real estate you own in that county, which must be paid if you sell or refinance. Learn how a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy can potentially remove the lien.
*Writ of General Execution:* The less common, more cumbersome method to seize non-exempt personal property (like vehicles or brokerage accounts).

⚠️ Judgements last a long time (10 years in Arizona and renewable) and accrue interest! You cannot afford to ignore this. Your credit report acts as a roadmap for collectors, so you must act quickly to settle or seek legal counsel.
