    Default Will My Girlfriend's Bankruptcy Affect My Credit

    My question involves bankruptcy in the state of: WA

    My girlfriend had a judgement against her of $14,000 this morning to a collection agency over an unpaid medical bill. We have a house together where she is on the title, but not on the mortgage. She was a co-signer for her car with me and we still owe $9,000 on it. I have two questions about this.

    1. Can she file bankruptcy on the $14,000 judgement in WA?

    2. How will this affect my credit if she were to file based on being on the title of the house and with the car?

    Thank you
