Episode Synopsis

The automatic stay that bankruptcy provides can be extremely helpful in protecting you from creditors. It can stop a bank levy, a wage execution, or any other attempt to collect a debt.

In this episode, Meryl and Steve discuss these exceptions and how to view the automatic stay realistically when it comes to your divorce.
