Marriage and Promissary notes

I am seeking advice on this topic. I currently owe some money on a promissary note to someone. I am about to wed this next year and i am concerned that the person i owe the note to is going to come after my wife and her assets once we get married. is there any way i can protect her and her assests????????

The promissary note predates the wedding and I am certain, does not include wording to allow the creditor to garnish, seize, or take possession of your wife's assets. However, they may be able to attach to YOUR JOINT assets ( property or money obtained during the course of the marriage, since it is, in fact, half yours).

A prenuptial agreement may help keep your assets clearly separate----clearly separate from both you AND the creditor.
