When couples separate but don’t file for divorce, their marriage is in a sort of limbo. A lot can happen during this separation stage that may impact child custody, support, taxes, assets and debts. A legal separation document can protect you and help establish your rights in any subsequent divorce.
Couples may also seek a legal separation for several purposes – for religious reasons, to allow one spouse to continue to receive insurance coverage, as a trial separation with the hopes of reconciliation, for tax purposes or to qualify for Social Security benefits.
No matter what the reason is for your legal separation, our legal team can tailor an agreement that will meet your objectives and protect your rights.
For additional information about separation, please see our Frequently Asked Questions.
