Liabily of Debt
Comments

Presumably there are no children to take into consideration for the divorce? In which case if there are no joint assets, just debts, the likely outcome is they are jointly and severally liable for the joint debts (ie, she will stop paying and your friend will be chased for the debt), and solely liable for their own debts. However, if her solicitor is saying the husband will end up paying for the wife's own debts then that solicitor obviously has a game plan for the divorce so your friend needs to have his solicitor up to speed to defend him. Things can get nasty and it sounds as if your friend might agree to anything for an easy life (not a smart move).0
