MY WIFE PURCHASHED HER HOME ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO. WE GOT MARRIED A YEAR AGO. SHE REFINANCED THE HOME IN OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR. SINCE WE WERE MARRIED THEY REQUIRED THAT I BE PLACED ON THE DEED BUT NOT ON THE LOAN SINCE MY CREDIT WASNT SO GOOD. I HAVE A JUDGEMENT AND THEY PUT A LIEN ON HER HOUSE. IF I FILE BANKRUPTCY WILL THIS REMOVE THE LIEN OFF OF HER HOUSE?

Hi JOHN,

If you file bankruptcy, you can have your debts discharged. But it does not remove the lien from the property. The lien will remain on the house till the time it is paid off in full. However, under the section 522(f) of the bankruptcy laws, certain judgment liens can be removed in case it interferes with an exemption you're supposed to qualify for under bankruptcy laws. The extent of exemption you can qualify for varies from one state to another. A bankruptcy attorney is the best person to guide you in this regard.
