Separation Agreements

A Separation Agreement is a legally binding contract that outlines the rights and obligations of separating spouses or partners. It covers various aspects of the separation, including:

​

  • Division of Assets and Debts: Detailing how property, assets, and debts will be divided between the parties.

  • Parenting Time and Decision Making (Custody): Establishing arrangements for the care and access of any children from the relationship, including decision-making responsibilities.

  • Child Support: Outlining the financial support that will be provided for the children, including the amount and frequency of payments.

  • Spousal Support: Addressing the financial support that may be payable from one spouse to the other, if applicable.

  • Other Practical Considerations: Addressing any other important matters such as insurance, pensions, tax implications, and more.
