In Wisconsin, filing for Chapter 128 does stop a wage garnishment. Chapter 128 is a debt consolidation program available in Wisconsin that allows individuals to reorganize and pay off their debts through a court-approved repayment plan. There are some debts that you cannot include in a Chapter 128, so be sure to consult a lawyer for specific details for your situation.
If you are dealing with a wage garnishment, Chapter 128 may still be beneficial in terms of consolidating and managing your debts, including directly stopping the wage garnishment. It's important to consult with an attorney who specializes in Wisconsin debt consolidation laws to explore your options and determine the best course of action for your specific situation.
