Can I file bankruptcy without my spouse?

Can I file bankruptcy without my spouse?

Yes, you can file bankruptcy without your spouse if married. Often one spouse does not want to file for a variety of potential reasons. Though most married couples file bankruptcy here in Sacramento together, they don’t have to.

If one spouse doesn’t file bankruptcy with the other, it is often necessary that the souse who doesn’t file waives their right to file bankruptcy. No matter this is a temporary waiver, it is frequently needed to protect the couple’s property.

As with everything, best to contact me or any other bankruptcy professional to evaluate the pros and cons of filing bankruptcy without your husband or wife.
