Legal separation is a provision that allows couples to live apart while remaining legally married. Like divorce, it can include court orders for child custody, support, and property division. It offers a solution for those not ready or willing to divorce, providing legal protection and clarity while preserving the possibility of reconciliation.
Establishing paternity is crucial for unmarried parents in particular, helping to resolve issues like child custody, visitation, and support. Without legal paternity, fathers may find themselves unable to make important decisions about their child’s welfare, while mothers may struggle to secure necessary financial support.
Whether you should pursue spousal maintenance depends on your specific circumstances and financial needs. If you need financial assistance to maintain your standard of living or transition to financial independence, pursuing spousal maintenance may be appropriate. Our team can help you evaluate your situation and determine the best course of action to protect your financial future.
