If i file bankruptcy will it hurt my spouse credit ?all the credit is in my name that i will be filing.?
The lawyer said he needs my husband check stubs for thr last 6 months .i have never seen his check .His take on this is i got myself in debt i need to get myself out.
The lawyer needs to know the family income to determine which type of bankruptcy to file.
You do not have to file together but they need to know the family income.
If you make over a certain amount you have to file Chapter 13 and if you don’t you can file Chapter 7.
BTW your husband sounds like a REAL winner, real supportive!!!

Ask your lawyer – you’ll get a better answer than you will here.
January 3rd, 2010 at 11:48 amDid you have these bills before you got married? Or did you make these bills while you were married. If you made the bills while you were married and whether or not you are in a community property state; your husband is also liable for the debt.
