I am Getting Divorced. What Should I Do About My Bankruptcy?

When filing for bankruptcy, it is highly suggested to wait until your divorce is finalized, unless the debts are in both parties names.  If they are, then you can file for a joint petition so that the bankruptcy is processed together.  If there is child support or spousal support involved, then filing for bankruptcy can be a factor in the ability or the amount you pay moving forward.
