today i received in the mail;

"Affadavit for Garnishment" and also a "Writ of Garnishment for Continuing Lein on Earnings" in the same envelope and while im not 100% sure what these mean, i'm comfortable with my conclusion that they will obviously be garnishing an estimated $265 from my checks

my entire debt is around $3550 on this matter, going back to a couple speeding tickets

nonetheless, there is no way i can afford to have that much taken from my earnings with this part time job i have vs my necessary expenses- and i know about the appeal form although i cannot find it online (WA state)

is there a way to either lower this debt, hire a lawyer and end up getting it all figured out for less, or lowering the garnishment that is taken (monthly or bi-weekly?)

iaccept that this is all my fault but im lost, and im not sure what to do to start fixing this
