      <title>What is the Federal employee exemption claim under a Writ of Garnishment?</title>
      <link>http://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/what-is-the-federal-employee-exemption-claim-under-169472.html</link>
      <description>A PNP hospital received a judgement against me and they garnished my wages 8 months ago without giving me notice.  I have tried to settle through their attorney, who made an oral agreement to settle in September and when he found out I was employed with the Federal Gov't and made a good salary he refuses to work with me stating I make more than him.  I just received service for the Write of Garnishment after 8 months and filed a Claim of Exemption and Motion to Dismiss the Judgement and the attorney just sent me Request for Production of Documents asking for my 2008 IRS returns and my 2009 earning and leave statements. I want to ask the Court to limit discovery to the time of the indebtedness.  I was indigent and homeless at the time due to Katrina.</description>

      <title>Car dealership lied to bank and the loan is in limbo -how do I fix it?</title>
      <link>http://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/car-dealership-lied-to-bank-and-the-loan-is-in-lim-168941.html</link>
      <description>I went to a car dealership as soon as I turned 18 .  I traded in a 2002 maxima that I owed 12,000.  The dealer told me he was going to pay off my trade.  I know better now but, I did not realize at the time that it was going to be done by adding the money to the cost of the loan on the new car.  I most likely signed something consenting to the amount of the loan.  I the contacted the bank and they asked me some questions.  It was then that I discovered that the sales guy lied to the bank, and that the bank would have never made the loan otherwise..  He told them I made twice as much, that I had been employed twice as long, and told them I was a veteran of the navy to get the Navy credit union to buy my loan.  The bank told me to stop paying.  2 years no payment no repo. What do i do?</description>

      <title>Do I have a case</title>
      <link>http://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/do-i-have-a-case-168284.html</link>
      <description>I was rear ended on 7 dec 06.  Statue is coming up.  Insurance co is playing hard ball.  They offered only $2000.

My medical bills are essentially $0 because I was in the military and they paid the bills. I was out of work for 2 months and possible lost $4000 in pay.

Do I fight and get a lawyer or settle?  It was only soft tissue damage, diagnosed as acute cervical strain/whiplash, off work for 2 months but kept regular pay check.  Went to electo-shock thearpy 2 times and on pain meds.</description>

      <title>Options for a 18yr old illegal immigrant</title>
      <link>http://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/options-for-a-18yr-old-illegal-immigrant-168252.html</link>
      <description>I entered the united states illegally when I was 5 yrs old. I turned 18 last month and I was wondering about my options for obtaining any kind of legal status. My mom had me and my brother under benificiaries since she applied for a social security for us in 1994. She received the social security cards for us that read 'not valid for employment'. I have never worked here illegally or gotten in trouble with the law. I haven't left the country either since I came here!. My mom is a citizen of the u.s but since she brought us here illegally and can't provide enough information to obtain a passport she isn't much help. We have aunts uncles And cousins here in the u.s that have obtained citizenship through naturalization. Could I get any benefits from them? Do I have to leave the country?</description>

      <title>I had a hate crime committed against me by an army vet and a police detective refuses to peruse. What do I do?</title>
      <link>http://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/i-had-a-hate-crime-committed-against-me-by-an-army-168131.html</link>
      <description>I was involved in a verbal assault, was threatened with my life (unprovoked) by 6 males. Was called derogatory names and was told they were going to shoot and kill me. One of them just so happened to be an army veteran and the detective that took over the case refuses to press charges on an army veteran. He blatantly stated nothing would be done about it and to &amp;quot;have a nice day.&amp;quot; I need to know who to contact pertaining to not only this detective but what I need to do to peruse this on a federal level.</description>
