Protect Your Personal Financial Interests During Divorce

Divorce can lead to financial disputes over asset division, debt division, child support and spousal support. Our Arizona bankruptcy and divorce attorneys will work directly with you to assess your needs and protect your rights with respect to your separate and community property and debts.

Understanding Divorce and Bankruptcy in Arizona

Arizona is a community property state, meaning that assets and debts acquired during a marriage belong to both parties. In cases involving debt, both parties need to take an active interest to protect their individual rights. By filing bankruptcy before a divorce, you may be able to quickly and effectively resolve debt disputes without creating additional complications in the divorce process.

If you have already divorced and are considering bankruptcy, you need to be aware that any debt division that takes place during divorce does not affect both spouses' obligations to their creditors. It is important to have a clear understanding of your rights and obligations so that you can protect your personal financial interests before, during and after divorce.
