Hello

Any debt that is in joint names you are both liable for. If you were to declare yourself bankrupt then your partner would be chased for the full amount of any debt that is in her/joint names.
Her credit rating will still be affected if the debt isn't being paid and they could take legal proceedings against her resulting in CCJ's, Charges, attachment of earnings or even bankruptcy.
If you are struggling then please call us and we'll give you as much information as possible.
Hope this helps.
