so.. the answer is no. I am planning to see another bankruptcy lawyer after the holiday season. Hopefully, he can provide some perspective. Thanks guys... I know I am slow but I am trying my best here. It's just hard to pay off debt which was originally about $20,000 and now became over $100,000...
Thanks. Actually, postnuptial option was recommended by 2 bankruptcy lawyers I have counseled previously. I am getting confused more and more everyday...
Is there a chance that the judgment I have maybe a time-barred debt and I don't have to pay anything? The judgment against me has been sustained over 10 years now by renewing it and I have heard the statute of limitations in case of debt in CA is normally 4 years...

Yes, I got it. Thanks. Now, if the assets of spouse can be affected even for the debt incurred before the marriage, my next question is whether it can be waived if we draw postnuptial agreement to separate her assets from my liability... I should focus on figuring out this one now
I found out that the spouse is not responsible for the debt incurred before the marriage in California: "Separate Debt: Debts incurred before marriage or after separation are separate debts and belong only to the spouse that incurred them."

I have talked to several bankruptcy lawyers already, but everybody's advice is different. Some advise getting postnuptial because my wife's asset is at risk, and others say I don't need to worry about the assets that are kept under her name. Now, I am not even sure even getting postnuptial could...
I am already married, but my wife and I do not have any shared assets. We both manage our money separately in our disparate bank accounts. Then, my wife does not need to worry about her money taken by the debt collectors in the state of California? So, I do not need to bother with getting a...
the debt incurred before the marriage. Wouldn't the prenuptial reconcile the obligations that I have caused before the marriage if it is still possible to do it?
I heard they can come after my wife's asset as well in California if they find out I am married. I am thinking about prenuptial to avoid the financial responsibilities of spouse... What do you think?
I do not have a house or a steady job. I just have some money in my bank account. So my question would be how they can find out about the assets I have in my bank account if I don't talk to them. Are there ways they can trace it without my assistance?
I have a judgment against me due to a car accident. I heard the collection agencies cannot harass me by calling me and popping up at my place. So, what can they do to collect the amounts put on judgment?
