FAQs: Separation
What is the difference between a separation agreement and divorce?
A separation agreement sets out terms of separation without officially ending a marriage, while divorce legally dissolves the marriage entirely. Many choose separation as an interim measure to clarify financial and childcare arrangements before deciding if divorce is right for them.
Can I change the terms of a separation agreement at a later date?
Yes, separation agreements can be modified if both parties agree. However, it is often advisable to seek legal guidance when altering agreements, to ensure all changes remain valid and enforceable.
How long does it take to finalise a separation agreement?
The timeframe depends on the complexity and how quickly parties reach an agreement on key matters. Typically, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months, depending on the complexity and extent of negotiations required.
Can you help me if my partner refuses to agree to terms?
Absolutely. Our team can support you through negotiations and mediation, facilitating discussions and helping parties overcome disputes. If an agreement cannot be reached amicably, we can provide clear guidance on your legal options and next steps.
Is a separation agreement legally binding?
Although a separation agreement is not automatically legally binding, it can become enforceable if properly drafted and agreed to by both parties with independent legal advice. In some instances, the court may rely on the terms of the agreement when making future orders.
