Find the best financial services for you at: SMARTFINANCESOLUTIONS.NET - Can my divorce lawyer sue me even after I have filed chapter 7 bankruptcy for attorneys fees still owed? - Did you specifically list your divorce attorney as a creditor? Was he notified that you were attempting to declare bankruptcy on this debt? Did he appear at your hearing to contest this?

Is your bankruptcy final and was the debt wiped out?

If the answer is yes, then the answer to your question is no, not successfully. I would send him a letter explaining that the debt was discharged during your bankruptcy.

If your bankruptcy is pending, I would speak with your bankruptcy attorney. If you do not have one, I would send your divorce attorney a letter that states you are in the process of declaring bankruptcy and you are asking the court to discharge this debt to him. -
