Can debt collectors come after your assets if your spouse incurred the debt before you were married?
Question by rottdog76: Can debt collectors come after your assets if your spouse incurred the debt before you were married?
My fiance has a debt collector coming after her pretty aggressively and in not the most ethical way (in CA). She has a car (still paying on it) and no other assets. I own a house with more equity than here debt. Can her debt collector come after my assets once we are married?

Yes. Once your married, your assets and liabilities are now one. Make a plan to pay this debt off once your matrimonial, you get the entire package when you marry her, not simply the good parts. Also, assume’t you dare hold this against her once your married, no comments like, well we would have more money if it weren’t for…. You know what your getting into. I have been married 23 years, we have never fought about money – in fact, we don’t fight at all. Good luck and congratulations.
