Wage garnishment occurs when a creditor obtains a court order to deduct a portion of an employee's wages to satisfy a debt. The claim typically arises when an employer improperly withholds too much of an employee's wages or does not follow the proper legal procedures for wage garnishment, which can result in financial harm to the employee. Employers can also face liability for not protecting employees from unlawful garnishment orders.
