Legal separation advice: Who is responsible for the debt?

Apr 18, 2011

Question:

I'm looking for legal separation advice. While my wife and I were separated but still married, I paid off two loans using money I cashed in from my 401k. I was told I would be the one solely responsible for the taxes on the 401k withdrawl.

At what point in a separation leading to a divorce are assets and debt still considered marital property? Should we both be responsible for the tax money owed?

Can my wife legally sign a house lease with her boyfriend although we are not separated and still legally married?

Would I be liable for any debts if she defaults on the lease since we're married?

Who is responsible for the car debt post-divorce?

Dec 02, 2010

Divorce attorney Jason Bowman Question:

My wife and I are getting divorced. When we refinanced our marital home, we borrowed against the home equity and bought my wife a car. She is keeping the car in the divorce.

Even though the car debt is tied to the home, will she be responsible for the debt since she is keeping the vehicle?
