Can I legally have bankruptcy from my credit report early?

A Bankruptcy will stay on the credit report for 10 years. I don't know of any way to make it go away sooner. However, the impact of the bankruptcy on your credit score will lessen with time. Many lenders are willing to give prospective home borrower a mortgage loan, provided of course they qualify in other respects, 3 years after bankruptcy. Some lenders may even do it sooner if there were extenuating circumstances that lead to the bankruptcy, for example: large medical debts.

You should consult a local bankruptcy attorney to determine what debt can be discharged.  Most bankruptcy attorneys offer a free initial consultations to determine if bankruptcy is appropriate.

Can a married woman in California file chapter 7 on her own?

Answered by attorney Asaph Orion Abrams (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Asaph Abrams
A spouse may file bankruptcy separately from her spouse. However, separate-filing is a yellow wet-floor-sign: it's slippery when wet. A waiver may be necessary and debtors often fail to appreciate that the nonfiling spouse's assets and income are integral to the filing spouse's bankruptcy. The decision whether to file jointly or not is not straightforward; you should both consult with counsel. Don't let the national credit-score-obsession strictly dictate your moves.
