Hello I am being sued for a loan debt. I have no job and I wanted to know if they can attach my Husbands wages for this debt? I live in Pennsylvania.

Not if he isn't signed on the loan. But they CAN attach joint bank accounts.

Okay thank you. Do you know if the can put a lien on my car? I am going to try to contact the collection agency to see if they are willing to negotiate outside of court..

Most likely they will not go after non-cash assets. It usually costs them more to repo and sell then its worth.

Do you think they will be willing to negotiate before it gets to court?

Before, yes. But it depends on how strong a case they have.

I guess it wouldn't hurt to give them a call. I can't afford to pay the whole thing at once. But I can make monthly payments
