I have a loan for his personal business vehicle in my name also titled in my name. How does this work in a divorce, am I stuck with the payment?

If the loan for a vehicle used for his business is in my name and it is automatically withdrawn from an account that I make a weekly deposit into will I be responsible for that after the divorce or will the note have to be put into his name?

That's a very hard question to answer all by itself, because I don't know what other assets and debts and income the two of you have.  If your husband has a business, I think you really need to have a lawyer's advice here, because that's one of the things that can make a divorce a lot more complicated.  One place to find an attorney is our website, http://attorneypages.com

What's your husband's business worth?  That's a big part of the problem here.  You can't hope to answer that question without some more information, and you will probably need a lawyer's help just to get that information, much less make some sense out of it.


IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Answer(s) provided above are for general information only. The attorney providing the answer was not serving as the attorney for the person submitting the question or in any attorney-client relationship with such person. Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved. Unlike the information in the Answer(s) above, upon which you should NOT rely, for personal advice you can rely upon we suggest you retain an attorney to represent you.
