Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Georgia

Husband's debt harm me?

My husband and I are both listed on our mortgage. My husband became disabled and has not worked for 7 mos. He has not been able to collect unemployment or sickness benefits. He is two months behind in his truck payment (which is in his name). He has a lot of other debt such as child support (over $3,000 behind) and high-balance credit cards in his name that are not yet behind. We are really struggling on my paycheck. How will his outstanding debt affect me legally?

Re: Husband's debt harm me?

Any assets with his name on it might be subject to any judgments against your husband. Assets that are solely in your name should be protected.
