Florida Bankruptcy Lawyers
Our bankruptcy and divorce attorneys understand that divorce and bankruptcy are two of the most difficult times in anyone's life. We are here to offer compassion, understanding and high-quality representation. All too often, bankruptcy and divorce go hand in hand. Each respective proceeding is capable of affecting the effectiveness of the other set of proceedings. For example, a divorce filing can stop a bankruptcy proceeding in its tracks.
Notably, divorce settlements are non-dischargeable under the Bankruptcy Code. This means that if a divorce settlement is reached prior to filing for bankruptcy, it must be paid, regardless of your other circumstances. This may affect your ability to meet the payment obligations created by Chapter 13 restructuring.
For this reason, and others, it is very important that your bankruptcy attorney understand the intricacies of how divorce and bankruptcy affect each other, to avoid creating additional difficulties.
