If you are seeking legal separation from your spouse, we can facilitate it.
In some cases, a married couple may want to live apart, divide assets, and allocate parental responsibilities, but they may not be ready for the finality that comes with legal termination of their marriage. Rather than divorce, they may get a legal separation. A separated couple is still married in the eyes of the law, and they can either reconcile or pursue divorce at a later date.
There are many reasons why a couple might opt for a separation over a divorce, such as the following:
- Keeping their spouse covered under their insurance plan
- Filing taxes jointly or married filing separately rather than filing as single
- Avoiding complications with dividing assets and property
- Religious reasons
- Immigration status
