Legal Agreements for Separations.
Choosing to live separately does not always mean you are ready to divorce or dissolve a civil partnership.
In some situations, a separation agreement can provide a practical and flexible way to record what has been agreed between you, while giving both parties greater clarity about finances, property and day-to-day responsibilities. At what can often be an uncertain and emotional time, having clear advice early on can help you feel more informed and better prepared for the future.

Why Consider a Separation Agreement?
Separation Agreements – also known as deeds of separation – give couples the chance to address the same kind of issues as divorce, such as property, arrangements for children and financial assets, but without the legal dissolution of the marriage/civil partnership.
It allows people to legally separate on a formal basis, providing more scope for negotiation and giving them time to consider whether they ultimately want to divorce or dissolve a civil partnership.
A Separation Agreement also provides a set date for formal separation, and can dispel accusations of desertion.
