Divorce Attorneys For Fair Division Of Marital Debt

At the Law Office of Cheryl Bucker, P.A., in Pompano Beach, Florida, our lawyers understand that many spouses are worried that they will be legally responsible for an unfair amount of debt after a divorce. If high credit card balances or substantial medical bills present important issues in your divorce, you should seek the advice of an attorney with experience in complex property division. We will provide straightforward and realistic advice about what you can expect from your divorce.

What Is Marital Debt?

Marital debt may be a debt accumulated by either spouse during the course of the marriage, and often includes:

  • Home and real estate mortgages
  • Credit card and consumer loan debt
  • Medical bills
  • Business loans and debt
  • Student loans
  • Auto loans, boat loans
  • IRS/tax obligations

Unfortunately, even if a debt is only in one spouse’s name, if it was accrued during the marriage, it may be a marital debt subject to equitable distribution.

If an underwater house, substantial medical bills or high credit card balances present important debt issues in your divorce, contact the Law Office of Cheryl Bucker, P.A., to protect your interests.
