A Florida Writ of Garnishment is a legal process that allows a creditor to take control of a debtor's personal property or wages in order to pay off a debt. This process is governed by the Florida Statutes and requires a court order. The two types of Florida Writ of Garnishment are wage garnishment and bank account garnishment. A wage garnishment is when a creditor can take a certain amount of a debtor's wages from their employer each pay period until a debt is paid off. A bank account garnishment is when a creditor can take the funds from a debtor's bank account in order to pay off a debt. In both cases, the court will determine the amount of money that can be taken from the debtor and will issue a Writ of Garnishment.
