Bankruptcy Can Simplify Divorce
In most cases, it is beneficial to go through bankruptcy before getting a divorce. Especially in cases where children are not involved, financial issues are the most important issues to resolve in a divorce. If your debt problems are eliminated through bankruptcy prior to seeking divorce, it can result in a smoother, quicker and less expensive divorce process.
However, if your relationship has deteriorated to the point where you are unable to work together during bankruptcy, this option may not be for you. If that is your situation, we can work with you to make sure you are protected after your divorce. This may include obtaining a lien on your ex's property to prevent you from being held responsible for more than your share of the martial debt.
