Legal Separation

Irvine Legal Separation Lawyer

 

“We believe that one of our skills is in good communication with our clients and building a good rapport with each of our clients.”

Unlike a divorce, a legal separation does not terminate a marriage. It is an alternative to a divorce.  The husband and wife retain their marital status even though they do not live together;  the marriage has broken down. A legal separation is similar to a divorce in that all of the same issues must be resolved and adjudicated, including child custody and visitation, spousal support, child support, and a division of community property, rights and obligations.

Reasons for Legal Separation

A legal separation may be preferred to a divorce in some cases for religious or economic reasons, such as to retain medical insurance that would otherwise be lost in a divorce. Both parties must agree to a legal separation and to its terms. If one of the parties responds by requesting a divorce, then the legal separation may not be granted by the courts. A legal separation is not a necessary prerequisite to obtaining a California divorce.
