What may a bailiff deduct from wages? | Legal Aid

Questioner

Good afternoon, I would like to know what a bailiff may withhold from wages. they withheld 2500 euros from my husband while the bailiff had all the papers of all the fixed, but they simply don't care that you can no longer pay your mortgage and that you can no longer comply with the arrangements with 3 other bailiffs because this one does not want to cooperate in a payment arrangement.

one must take into account a so-called exempt amount. Failure to do so will give rise to an enforcement dispute. For more information, please contact me, I will be happy to assist you.

All four bailiffs in this case must take into account the attachment-free amount. Even if multiple bailiffs have garnished wages, the height of the attachment-free amount remains the same. To ensure that this goes well, it is customary for the 2nd and 3rd bailiff to submit their claims to the first bailiff. The money that the first bailiff then collects will be shared with the other bailiffs. It is wise to inform all bailiffs about the other bailiffs cp wage garnishments. Whether you are still able to pay your mortgage with the attachment-free amount is another question. When determining the attachment-free amount, no (extra) account will be taken of that. Good luck in any case.
