    Default Re: Divorce and Debt

    The question of what happens with the debt depends in part upon whether its exclusively in your spouse's name or if it's joint debt (if your partner signed your name to loan applications, that raises some additional potential issues) and what the money was used for.
    1 card in mine only, 1 card in theirs only, and 2 in both names. It seems like the most of the debt is in regards to the house. But this debt has now harmed our living in this house. If I had known about this before it because a huge debt then I could have done something about it. Now I feel like I'm up against a wall in all directions!

    Is there ANYTHING I can do? I have lost all hope of divorce now and am now more miserable than ever. There's no way I can afford this debt on-top of a new place to live (if we could even sell our current place, damn economy) and then if they hit me with child support? Absolutely forget it. I can't stand the fact of being stuck with them the rest of my life because of money!

    You should discuss the details of your situation with your divorce lawyer.

    I haven't gone to a lawyer yet because if my partner found out I saw a lawyer they'd get nasty. Plus at this point I can't afford a lawyer unless they were close to free
