Think About Debt Before the Divorce
In many cases, it makes the most sense for people to file for bankruptcy prior to starting divorce proceedings. If you are considering a divorce, it is important to know that you will remain responsible for any marital debt, regardless of how it is distributed during your divorce. Should your former spouse fail to make his or her payments, creditors will seek compensation from you, even though you are no longer married. In fact, if your former spouse files for bankruptcy on his or her own after the divorce, creditors may attempt to pin any remaining debt on you.
