Wage Garnishment

Fast Action to Protect Your Paycheck From the IRS

Wage garnishment is one of the most aggressive collection tools the IRS uses, allowing it to take a portion of every paycheck directly from your employer until a tax debt is resolved. For many people, this creates immediate and serious financial hardship — making rent, car payments, or basic living expenses suddenly difficult to cover.

Mitchell St. Louis, P.A. moves quickly to intervene once a garnishment is issued or threatened, contacting the IRS directly to negotiate a release or an alternative resolution. In many cases, garnishments can be stopped or reduced once a formal agreement is in place.

What we handle:

Emergency intervention to stop an active wage garnishment
Negotiating a release of garnishment with the IRS
Setting up a payment plan or other resolution to prevent future garnishment
Reviewing your case for eligibility for hardship status or an Offer in Compromise
Ongoing representation to keep the IRS from resuming collection

Why it matters:

The longer a garnishment continues, the more of your income is affected, and the IRS won’t stop on its own. Getting an attorney involved quickly is often the difference between an immediate resolution and months of lost wages.
