Weintraub & Selth, Handling Issues in Bankruptcy Divorce and Asset Protection

In many cases, the community property (and related debt) comes into the bankruptcy estate which is managed by the spouse who filed bankruptcy first. Understanding this process up-front can provide you with significant leverage and eliminate years of costly wrangling in the divorce court. In addition, understanding the uses of bankruptcy in the context of a divorce can help you and your former spouse make rational decisions that are in your mutual best interests, such as:

  • Should you file personal bankruptcy first?
  • How do we address any assets held by a family business ?
  • How do we make sure the children's interests are protected in a bankruptcy divorce?
