Divorce and Bankruptcy

Divorce and bankruptcy can affect each other when debt, support, property, foreclosure, or business ownership issues overlap.

Timing matters. A person considering both divorce and bankruptcy should get advice before assuming which case should happen first or how debts, support obligations, property division, and mortgage liability may be affected.

Issues to review

• Joint debts and credit-card obligations
• Mortgage arrears, foreclosure pressure, and real estate decisions
• Child support, maintenance, and domestic support obligations
• Property division and timing of filings
• Business debts or self-employment income

The firm helps clients identify the connected issues and develop a practical plan based on the facts of the case.
