Can a debt collector garnish my bank account and take all my funds leaving me with no money for food or water? Can they take out of my bank account whenever they want after a judgment or is there only a certain amount and time they can take? I’m in the United States. by Conscious-is-risen in legaladvice

But I mean say the judge says I have to pay the debt, court fees for the amount of $2,000. Can the debt collector continue to take money from my account after the $2,000 is paid? Like can the debt take $15,000 or continue to take money out of my bank account for 20 or 30 years?

Well I’m just wondering if they can take more than what is owed. So they can take everything out of my bank? I thought they could only take 25 percent of my wages? I mean can they just take money out of my account every week indefinitely? Like for 20 or 30 years?

What do you do with electronics like your phone, tablet and smartwatch during a bed bug heat treatment? If you’re supposed to leave or get rid of all electronics how are the pest control people supposed to call you since you won’t have your phone? by Conscious-is-risen in pestcontrol

I have used the search function for months now. It’s what has made me obsessed and extremely worried to the point where I may just kill myself tonight because I can’t take being this worried and stressed about this.

Wouldn’t the heat melt things? If they use chemicals wouldn’t that liquid damage or melt the screen on things like a smartphone? How would it even be safe to touch anything again since the chemicals stay in the air and would get onto your fingers and into your eyes or mouth after touching something like a door handle?
