Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
Am I responsible for my wife�s debt?
My wife had some dental work done and my insurance paid a portion of the charges and the rest of the charges I am assuming are her responsibility. Well my wife never paid the bill so can a collection agency legally report this negative amount on my credit report?
