Filing Bankruptcy & Family
Family Matters in Personal Bankruptcy
Family issues can be a significant hurdle to filing personal bankruptcy, but they can also be a motivating factor.
If your debts are tied with those of your spouse, parents or children, you may still be able to benefit from bankruptcy protections, but the process may be more complex.
Family issues that often come into play during bankruptcy cases include:
- Divorce & Bankruptcy: Divorce can often lead to filing bankruptcy. Learn about your options if you are facing both marital and financial problems.
- Filing Bankruptcy While Married: Married couples have the option to file bankruptcy jointly, or for only one spouse to file. Which is right for you?
- Military bankruptcy: If you or your spouse is in the Armed Forces, you may still be able to file bankruptcy. Find out how.
- Debt & Parents: Your options if your parents are co-signers on your debts, or if you owe significant money to family members.
