Legal Separation

A legal separation differs from a divorce in one respect only. You’re not free to remarry. The property is divided, custody orders will be made, and support will be ordered.

Many people with religious objections to divorce prefer a legal separation. A legal separation is also an effective way to retain certain entitlements such as insurance benefits, or with some exceptions military benefits, even though the parties are living separate and apart.

Call our office for a free consultation on whether this option might be best for you.
