If I file chapter 7, will my husband be responsible for my debts. Or is divorce a better option?

If your husband is responsible for paying any of your debts, divorce won't make any difference to his responsibility to pay the creditors. However, any debt that is made in your name alone, other than medical debts, is your and yours alone, so if you filed bankruptcy, the creditors would not legally be able to seek payment from him.

I filed for bankruptcy in 2005, can I file again now?

It depends on what Chapter you filed under before and what Chapter you want to file now. It goes from the date you filed the last case to the date you file the next case.

If you're in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy plan, can you file a Chapter 13 instead?

Answered by attorney Rustin Scott Polk (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Polk & Associates
You are allowed to change the type of case you have. You would not file a new Chapter 13 case if you're already in an active Chapter 7 case, but you can file the appropriate pleadings to have your existing case "Converted." There are a few criteria, so occasionally the debtor's request for Conversion may draw opposition and perhaps even be blocked or denied. But Converting cases between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 is something permitted under bankruptcy law.
