Domestic Abuse and Personal Bankruptcy

Domestic abuse happens every 15 seconds of every day, and to over one million women in the United States each year. Abuse leaves its mark in many forms. Too many battered women believe that after the physical wounds heal, the effects of abuse disappear as well. Not true. In addition to the well-documented emotional impact of abuse, battered women suffer from lingering financial difficulty. That financial difficulty is often a barrier to breaking away from an abusive relationship, but then it once again rears its ugly head as the financial effects are a constant reminder of the scars that abuse leaves.

Are you a battered women burdened with medical bills from the injuries suffered from abuse? Are you buried in fees for counseling that you believed was the one hope in putting your marriage back together, but only left you with more debt and feeling more alone? How much do you owe in rehabilitation costs that seemed so promising to help your partner get better and make the violence stop, but commonly occuring to to battered women is that nothing changes?

Do you struggle to pay household bills that were once current and paid on time but were put on the back-burner because those day-to-day expenses were the least of your worries?
