unemployed can't pay credit cars/bills

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida

I'm a freelancer photographer no longer getting regular work. I am seeking a full time job, in the meantime signed on w/temporary help (secretarial) agency. I am unable to pay my credit card bills. Do I have any options until I am employed full time? Can they garnish the wages from temporary jobs?

If you are a head of household in Florida, your wages cannot be garnished. You should contact your creditors to see if you can negotiate more favorable terms.
