Joint Account Garnishment in Minnesota: Consumer Beware

Garnishment of joint bank accounts in Minnesota can quickly turn into a tricky situation for many consumers—especially consumers who don’t owe the debt.

A recent Star Tribune article on garnishment of joint bank accounts details a compelling story of one of the firm’s clients, featuring quotes from yours truly.

Be very careful about maintaining joint bank accounts. And if your account gets frozen, you need to take immediate steps to alert the creditor they have garnished the wrong funds. It’s also a very good idea to contact a consumer rights attorney.
