An Alabama Writ of Garnishment is a legal document issued by a court that orders a third party to turn over a debtor's assets to the creditor. This document can be used to collect unpaid debts from an individual or business. There are two types of Alabama Writ of Garnishment: Wage Garnishment and Non-wage Garnishment. Wage Garnishment orders an employer to withhold a certain amount of money from the debtor's wages to pay the debt. Non-wage Garnishment orders a third party to turn over any assets, such as bank accounts, investment accounts, and other property of the debtor, to the creditor. In both cases, the creditor must prove to the court that the debt is legitimate and that the debtor has failed to make payment.
