If the business is incorporated, it is consider a completely separate entity from the individuals who owned the business.  Absent certain circumstances (i.e. piercing the corporate veil), the corporate bankruptcy should not impact your personal finances.  You should consult with a local attorney to make sure that the corporate bankruptcy will not impact your personal finances and the closing of your home, as there are many factors to consider. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature. No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information. Furthermore, this does not represent the views or opinions of LexisNexis or its affiliated companies.

Do we have to talk with our lender during the foreclosure process and why?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
No responsible lawyer could answer a question about whether or not you should file bankruptcy without a lengthy discussion and reviewing many facts and numbers. If you do not respond to the Summons and Complaint the creditor will win a judgment of foreclosure by default, and you would lose any opportunity to disagree either with the creditor's right to foreclose, or with the amounts demanded, or facts stated. Generally I treat foreclosure complaints somewhat differently trying to preserve all the clients rights. You could let the creditor know that you are not abandoning the property, and that you want the full redemption period provided by law. (It's several months longer if you are still living in the property.) Good Luck.

You need to make a motion in the FL divorce for what is called pendente lite relief, i.e. he pays pending distrbution of assets.  If you want to live there, you are otherwise going to have to pay.
