Going through a divorce can be an emotional and stressful time, but adding financial issues to the process can make it more overwhelming. Typically during a divorce and after a divorce, communication breaks down or ends all together, past debt can come back to you regardless of divorce agreements.
Your ex-spouse may declare bankruptcy after your divorce although an agreement was made creditors may hold you accountable for paying the debt in full. It is important to remember that you are responsible for the debts incurred during your marriage, make sure you know the accounts that your name is on and how they are being handled.
