text: if your husband is facing a potential small business bankruptcy, will a divorce protect you? married for two years, seperate bank acounts. children from previous marriages and x spouses. it should as long as you have don't have any  debts tied to the business in both of your names . usually your debt is your debt and his debt is his debt if it was owned before coming into the marriage. but please seek the advice of an attorney (most offer free consultations even if you don't hire them) before jumping to divorce based on what people in here say. we could be wrong but an attorney can lead you in the right direction. even so, divorce shouldn't be an option to keep yourself from owing money. please consider this throughly. and to the post above: it's you're! not your. i am assuming you are saying she is pathetic not that she owns being pathetic. god learn grammer before insulting people who need advice!!!!
