Why is it
Important to Have a Written Agreement?
First, it is helpful if you need to provide
evidence about the date that you separated. Second, a marital separation agreement leaves no doubt about the
specifics of your marriage relationship and how you would
like your property divided. Your agreement will also help you settle
issues of child custody and support, spousal support, responsibility
for debts, taxes and other important issues. Our easy-to-use forms
makes this task simple and fast to complete.
Finally, to protect both parties, it is better to
have a clear written agreement rather than rely on verbal
agreements.
Do I Need a Lawyer to Write a Marital Separation Agreement?
No, couples may fill out their own separation agreement without the help of a lawyer. However, in some situations it may be wise to consult with an attorney or have them review your agreement if you have a complex situation.
According to the Family Legal Advisor: "The law has generally maintained that if you and your spouse are actually separated, and you no longer live together as husband and wife, any agreement you make with each other that is fair, and that provides for the support of the wife, is legal and binding".
Even if you are planning on using an attorney, experts suggest at least putting together the basics of your marital separation agreement before your visit. You will be better informed, well prepared and you could save a considerable amount of money in legal fees.
