    Default Divorce, bankruptcy and credit cards

    Here is another quick question. I got divorced. There were 3 credit cards in my wifes name. She was the primary, I was a authorized user on the cards. She was going to take responsibility for the cards. She is now doing bankruptcy. Will the card companies turn and come after me?

    Default Credit Cards

    It would normally be very difficult for them to do so. Normally, any claim they would make would relate exclusively to your wife, and if they were to try to disqualify any of your charges it would be in relation to her bankruptcy proceedings as opposed to trying to drag you into new legal proceedings.
