Bankruptcy And Divorce In Northwest Ohio

Are You Facing Both Bankruptcy And Divorce?

The unfortunate truth is that bankruptcy and divorce are often related. Financial conflict and debt-related stress are some of the most common reasons for spouses to split. Arguments about money — or one spouse’s spending habits — can undermine the marriage.

On the flip side, divorcing individuals without legal counsel may be tempted to spend far too much money on unneeded litigation. An unwise property division agreement may also saddle one spouse with expenses that he or she simply can’t afford on one income.

If you find yourself in such a situation in Henry, Williams, or Defiance county, turn to Kristen A. Stanton, Attorney at Law. From our office in Defiance, our lawyer provides skillful representation throughout the surrounding areas of Ohio including Napoleon, and Paulding. Kristen A. Stanton handles both bankruptcy and divorce, providing comprehensive solutions that meet your needs.
