Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky
debts from divorce
I have been divorced 2 years as of this august. In our divorce papers our marital debts were divided between the 2 of us, with each of us taking responsibility for certain debts. My ex-husband is not paying his debts which he agreed to pay and this has ruined my credit and they the debtors are harrassing me for payment. Can I fix this?

Re: debts from divorce
While you still may be jointly liable to the creditors for these debts, depending upon the Court's order, your ex may be in contempt of a court order and you may be able to seek recourse directly from him.
I would first recommend you send a letter to the creditor(s) informing them of the court order. You may also want to attach a copy for their records. Then, go speak with an attorney about your options against your ex at this point.
