Should I wait until my divorce is final and then file for bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Janice Fabiana Alfred (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at South Atlanta Family Law
If you and your husband are separated and do not live together, it really doesn't matter either way as long as you are completely aware of all of your debts, including those you have joint liability for.

What are my rights to keep debt from my ex spouse from being discharged?

Answered by attorney Christine Ann Kingston (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Christine A. Wilton
Your ex spouse can correct any errors in her bankruptcy papers at any time during her case. If you have documentation and evidence that she is hiding assets, then you can provide that documentation to the trustee assigned to administer her estate. Otherwise, there is not much you can do and her liability on those debts in which you are a co-debtor will be discharged. This will leave you liable for that debt.

Does filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy protect one from going to jail for child support?

Answered by attorney William Monroe Rubendall (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at William Rubendall Attorney at Law
The family law court has jurisdiction to determine whether a person will be jailed for child support arrrears. Filing of a bankruptcy has no effect on the family court's order. Paying for past due support in a chapter 13 might persuade a family court judge to not impose the penalty of jail.
