What is the effects of unsecured credit card and loans when you get a judgement?
Can they garnish your wages and freeze your bank accounts? In the state of New Jersey.:confused:

Yes. A judgement permits them to attach any assets they can find. NJ does permit wage garnishments. Generally they will not go after real property and some real property can be exempted.
