Legal Separation

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 and support, taxes, assets and debts. A legal separation document can protect you and help guarantee your rights in any divorce that ultimately results.

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 the reason for your legal separation, The Britt Law Group, P.C. can tailor an agreement that will meet your objectives and protect your rights.
