What to do if a finance company started garnishing my payroll for a loan I had about 8 years ago so I filed bankruptcy but do to an error it started to garnish once again?
My previous lawyer filed the wrong address so they started garnishing my payroll again. We filed an appeal on it and the judge did not grant the appeal so now they are still garnishing my payroll after a year. I called the lawyer representing the finance company to send me my balance and how much I’ve paid and he refused saying that the lawyer that representing me had to request it. I’m constantly calling the lawyer that I had and he is not returning my calls I really need help on this.

I suggest that you retain another attorney to substitute in place of the attorney that was representing you previously since he or she is not protecting your interests to resolve the matter that you have written about. If your desired "former" attorney does not substitute out as your attorney for the new one desired, I suggest that you contact your state bar and make a complaint about him or her.
