How to Avoid Getting Stuck with Your Spouse’s Debt | Los Angeles Divorce

💡 Divorcing? BE CAREFUL with debt! Many people don’t realize that creditors don’t care what your divorce agreement says. If your name is still on a loan or credit card, YOU could be responsible for your ex’s debt—even if the court assigns it to them. 😱

📌 How to Protect Yourself from Debt in Divorce:

✔️ Understand Community vs. Separate Debt – What you’re legally responsible for. ⚖️

✔️ Close Joint Accounts ASAP – Prevent new charges from being added to your name. 🚫

✔️ Refinance or Transfer Loans – Make sure debts are split before finalizing divorce. 💳

✔️ Use Assets to Pay Off Debt – If possible, clear shared balances upfront. 💰

✔️ Watch Out for Credit Score Damage – Your credit can suffer if your ex stops paying! ❌

💡 Real Client Story:

A client assumed their ex would keep paying a joint credit card. When their ex stopped making payments, the bank came after them instead! Their credit dropped over 100 points because their name was still on the account. We helped them refinance and protect their finances. 🚀
