can a creditor take property that is jointly owned

[Hubert]

Yes, a creditor can pursue a debtor’s share of jointly owned property, but not the co-owner’s portion. This typically requires a court order, such as a Writ of Seizure and Sale (WSS). However, the process is often complex, as the law restricts a creditor’s ability to enforce judgments against joint tenancy interests, making recovery from shared property difficult and time-consuming.
