Bankruptcy in Divorce and Matrimonial Cases

The 2005 amendments to the Bankruptcy Code revolutionized the relationship between bankruptcy and divorce.  Now, “domestic  support obligations” – meaning for the most part alimony and child support – enjoy the highest  priority in  bankruptcy administration.  This means that the relationship between bankruptcy and divorce is more complicated and complex than ever.

David P. Leibowitz, Lakelaw’s managing member, has been recognized as an authority on the relationship between bankruptcy and divorce, having been invited by the Illinois Institute on Continuing Legal Education to write on this topic for its Divorce Handbook.  People facing divorce and bankruptcy rely on Lakelaw for its knowledge and experience in this challenging and tricky area of the law.
