JJ brings up a very important point. It also depends on your what your state law interprets what is joint and what is separate. If you reside in a community property state, you divorced in a community property state and remarried in a community property state, then your creditor may try to attach to your current accounts held separatly and/or jointly w/your current spouse, unless there was a pre or postneputial agreement at sometime stipulate the partition of your accounts(CA,NM,WA,TX,AZ,NV,IDAHO,LA,WIS). In any other form of tenancy(Tenancy of Entirey, Common law or Tenancy in Commons), there is a very good chance that creditors CANNOT touch your current accounts with your current spouse. The law is very complex when it comes to dividing up assets, and possessions, and should be reviewed by a competent estate attorney. Most states differ in the wording of the law, and how it views property and assets during any form of Tenancy.

always cover yourself,
