If I file for bankruptcy then get married to her, would I be liable for the debt again?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
In Wisconsin a girlfriend may not file a joint case with her bf, unless they are married. (Domestic partners-I'm not sure.) It would be a grave mistake to claim to be married in order to file: it would be a false statement made under oath to a court, which is a crime. Wisconsin does not recognize common law marriage. Your marrying her would not make you liable on the debt again, assuming it is discharged in your Ch. 7. Best advice: find an experienced bankruptcy lawyer. It's almost always worth the investment.

Can I sell a house after the loan wasn't reaffirmed?

Susan Green Taylor
Answered by attorney Susan Green Taylor (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Susan G. Taylor
Absolutely! You have all benefits of ownership after filing Ch. 7 bankruptcy regarding your home, even though you didn't formally reaffirm that debt with the lender. You simply had no personal liability after your Ch. 7 discharge, that is, had you defaulted on the loan the lender could not have sued you for a deficiency. If you can't sell the house but need to relocate for a job or have found a better deal, you can stop making payments & let the home be foreclosed without fear of being sued for the difference in what you owe & what the lender recovers at the foreclosure sale. Hope this was helpful.

It is possible that a chapter 13 will be granted and they will be ordered to pay a portion of the unsecured claims. You need to file a proof of cliam to protect yourself.
