If you have debt, you might be looking at how you can go about to get out of it. However, you might even find that in many cases, you cannot. The only way that you can might be by filing for bankruptcy which is an option even if you are married. Just keep that in mind when you go to do this. This is how your bankruptcy works if you are married.

Many will ask what if they come after you. For some of you, you might be the only one seeking to go through the bankruptcy. This you can do. Any loans that have your name and your spouse are the ones that the spouse who did not file can be responsible for. Other than that, you will find that any other loans you have out in just your name, they will come after you.

Anything you own jointly is something that can be used to pay off debts. If you file taxes jointly, that can be used as well. So, you need to be careful and you need to explain this as you are going through the bankruptcy process. Your spouse needs to understand this and it is helpful to have a lawyer.

Now, many of you know that when one files for bankruptcy, they are then deemed as being a credit risk. This is because your credit score is drastically affected. However, many of you who are married and looking to file alone might worry that it will hinder your spouses credit. To some degree this might be true.

With their credit report since they have their own, you will find that in many instances they will still have good credit as reported on their credit report. The only time that they will not have good credit is if you two had joint property and debt with the joint accounts and so forth.

From here things get fuzzy as you have to figure what sort of bankruptcy you want to file and so forth. You have two options as to which you can file. There is chapter seven and then chapter thirteen. Each one differs in its own way. This might be a decision you both discuss and with a lawyer as well.

The last tip we can offer as to how things are handled as you file for bankruptcy when you are married is that you need to know how your state runs. Each state handles bankruptcy differently and therefore, what might be for one state might be for another. This could work for or against you. You just never know.

The thing that you must remember is that this will help you with the minor things. There are many things that you might still wonder as you work to file for bankruptcy. You do want to be sure that everyone's best interest is taken into consideration. Therefore, part of that is going to be making sure that you talk to who you need to talk to in order to fully understand this process. This is why you should have legal counsel to help you with everything. This might be the best thing for you.
