How does a person declare bankruptcy in the Philippines?

Friday, June 18th, 2010

I have a friend who is so deep in debt he never really realized until recently how much in trouble he already is. Credit card companies are already coming after him. On top of that, he also has personal loans from loan sharks and loans from his employer. He also has loans from the regular government-regulated loaning facilities. He is practically living off his overtime pay and he’s still under.

He is planning to file for bankruptcy? Is that even advisable? What are the disadvantages of this action? Are there bankruptcy filing procedures here in the Philippines?

Thanks!

How does my husband filing bankruptcy affect me?

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

I am currently am not living with and about to file for legal separation from my husband. He just told me he is filing bankruptcy, he owns a construction company that’s had a hard year. We are not ready to call it quits yet and divorce, but I want to protect myself. We have no joint accounts and my name is not even on the house he’s living in or associated with his business. Even if we get a legal separation will I still be affected by his bankruptcy? We live in Oregon.
