Hi Kate1

there are a number of things that we need to look at and review . Each of these will have a consequence and need to be dealt with.

1. The partnership. are the debts in sole names or joint names ( supliers etc)
2. What type of business are you in and what level of stock do you have.
3, Is any money owed to the partnership
4. what is the total debtin the partnership and then individually.

If the house is in negative equity then there is probably no risk of you loosing this provided that you are able to maintain mortgage payments after the business has concluded.

Also you should review what you are going to do after the business has ceased.

there are a lot of things to consider and it is really easy to get confused as to what to do first and how to proceed.

I wpuld really recommend that you take advantage of one of the forum experts and have a free telephone review of your position so you can then start to plan what to do and when.

the forum experts can be contacted via their links in the experts section.

hope this helps a little

Thank you for your reply.
The business is just small coffee shop where is not a lot of stock. It is a partnership with my husband but the secured loan is just personal and is just for my name but is in same bank where we have the joint account. The loan is 25 000. Then I have credit card 4000. Lease for rent for business is on my name and we are 1 month behind the payment which we have to pay 3 months in front (3000) and if we finish lease i think there will be some months notice so I thing another 3 000. First we wanted declare BR both but I find that is better when i will just declare BR. Is it right? Can I continue do the business at the momentor shall I stop? We are working there both. Shall my husband cancel working as self employe and start to look for the job? Sorry for so many question. I'm pregnant and I thing it will be hard to find the job now, shall I go to the job centre?
What about the account when is joint?
Thanks again K

Hi

if the majority of the debts are in your name then it would only need to be you that went Br.

It is important that you formally conclude the partnership.

You will need to think carefully about the business. If you petition for Br the Official Receiver will come and collect all the assets and close the business down the day you are bankrupt.

As I said there is an awful lot going on and you need to get expert advice.

Thanks

We haven't got any agreement on our partnership. Our lease should be on both name but on the end is just on my name.
That expert advice is just through the phone, how much it cost and what days can I call?
Before going tu BR I think we can close the business and take all the assets?
Oh how can we finish partnership?

Hi
Most experts don't charge to talkover the phone. If you feel that you would like to talk to me directlu you can go to the contact page of my webpage and leave details and best time to call.
I am working tomorrow so happy to call then.

Before you take assets or give them away you need to understand what you can do and what you definately can't do.

Take care

Paul

Hi Kate

If you did end up using Paul @reviva to help you through Bankruptcy, drop him an email or give him a call. (prob best email as he is very busy at Moment)

I know that the service that he offered us, was also aimed at helping us through bankruptcy and getting us back on our feet.

Think it included yelling at me loadly if i decided to start getting myself in the same that i had allowed myself to get into !

regards Richard

Hello Kate

If the mortgage is in joint names and you went bankrupt but your husband did not then he is liable for all the outstanding loans and the arrears. Depending on his overall asset versus debt situation he may have to follow you down the same path.
