An Illinois attachment Order, also known as a wage garnishment, is a legal procedure that allows creditors to collect money owed to them from a debtor’s wages. In Illinois, wage garnishments are governed by the Illinois Wage Deduction Act (ISDA) and the Illinois Code of Civil Procedure. The ISDA dictates that creditors must obtain court approval before initiating a wage garnishment. There are two types of Illinois attachment Orders — Voluntary and Involuntary. A Voluntary attachment Order is when the debtor agrees to a wage garnishment as part of a repayment plan with the creditor. An Involuntary attachment Order is when the creditor obtains a court order to garnish the debtor’s wages. In either case, the Illinois attachment Order will specify the amount of wages that can be garnished, the frequency of garnishment, and other details. The garnishment will be sent to the employer, who must then deduct the specified amount from the debtor’s paycheck and send it to the creditor.
