Married and common law spouses who separate have many issues to contemplate post break-up. Questions arise as to the custody of children, child and spousal support and property division.

Trustworthy Advice On A Range Of Separation Matters
If your domestic relationship comes to an end, you might be faced with a lot of uncertainty about your future. Many individuals question what steps to take when it comes to property division, debts and support payments. Some couples decide to write a separation agreement to settle these issues. Without skilled guidance on the technicalities of separating finances and settling custody arrangements, these agreements may not be valid. That means the decision you make may be disputed at a later date.
