    Default Re: Can You Discharge Your Divorce Lawyer's Fees in Bankruptcy

    It is possible to get the obligation to pay the legal fees discharged, but once a lien is in place against an asset it is much more difficult to get the lien removed. You should discuss the situation in detail with a bankruptcy lawyer.
