The Dual Challenges Of Bankruptcy And Divorce: Get The Help You Need
If you are approaching both bankruptcy and divorce, do not despair. Your life may feel unstable but there is light at the end of the tunnel if you persevere with confidence, determination and good legal advice. You may have reached the conclusion that bankruptcy is necessary, and your marriage may be definitely headed for divorce or in the process of divorce. Debt relief along with family restructuring may ultimately provide the breathing space you need to get a fresh start. You will have the opportunity to start over free from pressures that have been difficult to cope with.
It is perhaps not surprising that bankruptcy and divorce often come along at around the same time. One spouse may have been overspending, racking up credit card debts for the sake of building a wardrobe, enjoying an active social life or fueling a hobby. A husband or wife may have fallen into a gambling addiction that started with seemingly fun visits to a casino. Worse, an extramarital affair may have led to spending aberrations that ultimately threaten a household’s financial health as well as social harmony. Indeed, it can prove challenging to separate out the issues that caused financial distress and/or marital breakdown.
