I am failed financially and about to seek protection under the bankruptcy law. I run up credit card bills while being married to my to-be-ex-wife, but I don’t want her to be responsible for my failure. Should I file BK before or after divorce is finalized? How can I be sure my creditors wont go after my ex-wife just because we were married when I over-extended myself? Also, I’d like to be sure that her credit wont be killed because of me. Thanks.
Seek the advice of an experienced bankruptcy atty. I do have to say it is commendable that you want to watch out for the best interests of your prospective ex. I don’t know your reason for divorcing, but regardless, you are being mature, responsible, and good about making sure this woman is not going to be hurt by your financial hardship. Good Luck !!!
