You do not say what state you reside in. for a garnishment to be successful in your state (e.g. California) on a court judgment from Georgia, they would have to get a sister-state judgment and perfect the judgment in your domicile state.
For the original judgment to have been granted, you needed to have been served and the proper time to respond expired before the court would grant a default judgment. Where did the process server say he served it & when? Consider a Motion to Vacate the Judgment and Default. Also consider judicial sanctions for improper service on the process server and the attorney.
