Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New Jersey
My sister co-signed student loans with her ex-husband. Now that they're divorced, they've each been making payments to their respective loans, but she is still listed as a co-signee to his loans. He is not making his minimum payments, which is ruining my sister's credit (it's already not great). What options are available? Is there any legal way for her to be removed from these loans? What are her best options to be fully independant from her ex-husband financially? It appears as if these loans won't be fully paid off for 20 to 30 years, & her name & credit will be tied to him forever. Thoughts?

My thought is that this should have been taken care of in the divorce. She needs some advice, and she should make a call to my office and come in to see me before it gets any worse!

Please keep in mind that my response is just a general comment on your question, and not legal advice. Your question and any response does NOT create an attorney-client relationship between you and this law firm. The exact details of your situation and things that you have not mentioned in your question can completely change the answer to your question. You can not rely upon what I have written, because I do not have all of the formation that I need to advise you, I only have the very small amount of information that you put into your question. For me to give you any legal advice, I would need for you to hire me to be your lawyer, and then we would need to discuss this in detail and go over the documents.
To get legal advice that you can rely on and use, please contact me directly. I would be happy to assist you.
