We are seeking a divorce. Question: Do I have to pay for the debts of my husband''s car and for the house. We owe the bank $578.000?

If you did not sign as a guarantor or co-signer on either of the loans, then the third-party financing companies cannot hold you liable for these debts.  If your husband has been paying these bills during the marriage, it would be highly unusual for a judge in a divorce to order you to pay them now.  You did not state your income, but if it is substantially more than your husband, you could be ordered to pay him spousal support from which he could pay these debts.  If you are the one using the house and car, then you may have to pay for them or risk losing them or their being foreclosed or repossessed.  It is difficult to advise you without further information. This answer is given in accordance with the laws of Virginia and may not be applicable in any other state.  It should not be construed as legal advice, as that would require a more thorough analysis of all of the facts involved in a specific case.
