What a mess now!

[dealingsdone]

I owe BofA about 25k now.

I am seeing a lawyer this week to hopefully begin the bk process.

THE PROBLEM: I think the BofA card also has my wife as a co-applicant. We have been divorved for 5-6 years now but we opened this account back in about 2000 or so.

If I go bk, will BofA be able to sue her for the balance on this card?

If she was a co-applicant, and has not been successfully removed from the account(most unlikely) then yes they can and will.
