Legal Separation

Couples can often separate without going as far as getiing a divorce. This could be for a number of reasons as each case is unique. It does leave both parties of the couple without any legal guide lines to children or finances. A legal separation agreement and solve this problem.

If a legal separation agreement is not in place then disagreements can be form over household bills, children and many other issues.

A separation agreement is also known as a Deed of Separation.When preparing to draft the separation agreement, each party must produce full and frank financial disclosure, showing documentary evidence of their assets and liabilities. Each party exchanges this information with the other. Then a discussion takes place – and hopefully an explicit separation agreement can be drawn up.
