You should consult a local bankruptcy attorney to determine if and where to file. Most bankruptcy attorneys offer a free initial consultations to determine if bankruptcy is appropriate.

You can file bankruptcy in the district where either of you have resided, or have your principal assets located, for the greater part of the 180 days prior to filing the case (usually 91 days). I have no idea where Kenner is in relation to Baron Rouge or how Louisiana has set up its judicial bankruptcy districts. You should consult with a bankruptcy attorney in your area for more details.
