Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
I'm soon to be married in 5 months. And future wife is in and out of the hospitals for various things and doesn't have good credit because of it. I on the other hand have pretty good credit. After marriage, what are some of the things that will happen? Will I become responsible for all her future medical debt? I already assumed that she would loose her food stamps and Medicaid. It just worries me because will need to refinance my house in the next few years . We live in Florida by the way

In theory debt incurred during the marriage is marital debt. In reality if your name is not on any of these accounts then you have nothing to worry about.
