A Bankruptcy Lawyer for Divorcing Couples in Pennsylvania
Divorce rates and bankruptcy filings are at an all-time high in the U.S. If you fear that your divorce could cause even more financial problems, and send you into bankruptcy — you should speak with Pennsylvania attorney George L. Xanthoudakis.
Mr. Xanthoudakis can advise you on the roles that marital debt can play in your divorce. He knows the Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 statutes and strategies. He can show you how to pursue division of debt during a divorce and seek debt relief from credit card bills and collector harassment.
Your Divorce Doesn't Have to Break You Financially
Important factors to consider when one or more divorcing spouses contemplate bankruptcy:
- A joint bankruptcy may give each of you the "fresh start" you need
- Divorce proceedings can be delayed until a bankruptcy filing is complete
- You cannot be included in a former spouse's bankruptcy if your divorce was final before the bankruptcy
- Domestic obligations — spousal support, spousal maintenance, alimony, child support — are not dischargeable debts.
- You can be held responsible for all or a portion of a credit card bill total if your divorce decree requires it.
