Re: filing for bankruptcy
That depends on a few different things. It depends on several variable factors. If you are facing garnishments and levies, you should consider filing singly or jointly. You can contact me via email for a free consultation. 6 5 1 7 0 4 9 6 0 0
Re: filing for bankruptcy
If only one of the two of you has debts, and if that person "passes" the means test, it might make sense for only the one person to file. But, like most legal questions, "it depends". I hope you are using a competent bky attorney, as you can mess up a bankruptcy if you don't know what you're doing; I would have him or her run both scenarios.
Many bankruptcy attorneys, including me, will meet with you and do a quick analysis at no charge.
