How can I file bankruptcy without letting my husband know?

Answered by attorney Christopher J. Kane
Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
Well, you can file your own bankruptcy case and not tell your husband about it. If he is not co-liable on any of your debts he does not have to be listed as a creditor in the case and will not get notice from the Court. However, if you and your husband are commingling your income and expenses, then you have to list his income and expenses on your bankruptcy schedules and you will have to list all of the income he has received in the last 6 months in the means test form. So, you will need to be able to get this information somehow.

What can I do about old credit card debt if I filed for a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Max L Rosenberg
Bankruptcy lawyer at Rosenberg Hite, LLC
It is unclear what happened to you in your situation. You ramble all over the place in your question and muddy the waters to the point where I cannot give a clear cohesive answer. If you filed for bankruptcy during a time when it would have covered this debt then the debt would be effectively discharged whether or not you listed it on the bankruptcy petition unless you have an asset bankruptcy case. Most people have no asset cases which means that a trustee will not take any assets to disburse among the creditors. If this was the case in your case, you are making mistakes in entering into any payment plan with these people. All you need do is advise them of the date and filing number of your bankruptcy and explained that the debt was discharged. If however the debt was attached and secured by property then you have a different problem and they can repossess cars or whatever property the debts are attached to. You need to see a lawyer.

You state you are having problems getting safely in and out of your home, that could be an issue. Regarding your financial situation, the answer is always in the details, and the question regarding advisability of a bankruptcy can only be answered following a full examination of your present and anticipated situation.
