Ohio Marital Debt Lawyer
Often, unfortunately, divorce and bankruptcy go hand in hand. Without the income of both you and your ex-spouse, you may be unable to make ends meet, leading to a bankruptcy filing. On the other hand, the stress and anxiety that come with financial problems can result in the breakdown of a marriage. You may recognize that both processes are in your future and need an experienced lawyer to help you determine what to do first.
At the law offices of Amy M. Levine & Associates, we have a comprehensive understanding of both personal bankruptcy and family law. We will carefully explain the law and process for both and will help you determine the best approach to get the outcome you seek. We start by listening, taking the time to learn what you want to accomplish, so we can tailor our representation to meet your needs. Though we will work hard to negotiate a settlement that protects your interests, we are not afraid to take your case to court to help you get the results you want.
We offer a free initial consultation. To set up an appointment, contact our office or call us at 614-360-2942 in Columbus or 304-519-4354 in Huntington.
Columbus Bankruptcy Divorce Attorney
We work with men and women at any stage of a divorce or bankruptcy proceeding, helping you evaluate your options and take the steps that will best protect your interests. When you hire us, we will start by gathering as much information as we can about your circumstances, including:
- How many people you will have in your household after the divorce
- What your income is currently and what it will be after the divorce
- Whether you will be paying child or spousal support
- What kind of debt structure you anticipate after the divorce
Whenever possible, we will work to finalize your divorce without the need to consider bankruptcy. Under the right circumstances, we may be able to structure support and property agreements so you are able to meet all your financial obligations. When advisable, however, we may have you file for bankruptcy before your divorce is final so disputes over asset division or marital debts, such as credit cards, become less of an issue.
