Not all states recognize legal separations. In places that provide legal separations, the process is comparable to seeking a divorce.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One spouse submits a petition for legal separation, allowing a court to oversee the division of assets, child care, child support, and alimony. If both partners agree, they can submit a separation agreement for a judge&#8217;s approval, and once a divorce is approved, neither can remarry until it is finalized.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In some cases, a time limit may be imposed on legal separation. If there is a deadline, you must decide whether to reconcile, remain separated, or proceed with a divorce. Either partner can file for divorce without the other&#8217;s consent.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Are the Benefits of Legal Separation?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are <\/span><b>several benefits to legal separations over divorces<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Financial Benefits<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A formal separation allows both parties to maintain their medical, life, and other insurance benefits, as well as potentially receive each other&#8217;s social security payments. Tax benefits also continue post-separation.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Cultural or Religious Considerations<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many religions and societies discourage or outright prohibit divorce. Under the terms of a legal separation, both parties can preserve their marital status while living apart.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Possibility of Returning to Full Marriage<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A formal separation can serve as a trial period for couples who need a break from their marriage, but desire to potentially reconcile if things improve. This can make the process of returning to a full marriage easier.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is the Difference Between Divorce and Separation?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The primary <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.atownlaw.com\/blog\/legal-separation-vs-divorce-what-should-i-choose\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">difference between separation and divorce<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is that separation preserves the legal standing of the marriage, whereas divorce dissolves it. A divorce is irreversible, and it is exceedingly difficult to challenge a divorce order.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Separations are easy to achieve. If you have had a trial separation or a permanent separation from your partner, you can easily reconcile. Simply submit a motion or request with the court requesting the court to stop the separation if you are legally separated. <\/span><b>Other distinctions between separation and divorce<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are as follows:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Decision-Making Authority. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A divorce ends whatever decision-making authority you have over your partner, while in separation, you can still make medical or financial choices as their next-of-kin.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Property Rights.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In some states, when married couples divorce, they forfeit all rights and responsibilities regarding income, obligations, and property acquired by the other partner as of the separation date.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Benefit Entitlements.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Health insurance benefits may still be available to you if separated, but not if divorced. The specifics depend on state law and the terms of the insurance policy. It is important to carefully review shared benefits before a permanent or legal separation.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Are the Legal Separation Requirements in California?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A legal separation, unlike a divorce process, does not have a residence requirement. Therefore,<\/span><b> you do not need to be a California resident<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for at least six months or your filing county for at least three months. Many people who have just relocated to California and wish to dissolve their marriage choose a legal separation, so they may begin the procedure without having to wait months.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, if you and your partner have a complete agreement, you can get a Judgment of Legal Separation far more quickly than a Judgment of Divorce.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Are the Reasons for a Legal Separation?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reasons for a legal separation are similar to those for a divorce. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/leginfo.legislature.ca.gov\/faces\/codes_displaySection.xhtml?lawCode=FAM&amp;sectionNum=2310.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">California Family Code Section 2310<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a legal separation can be based on the following reasons:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Irreconcilable differences that have led to the marriage breaking down irreversibly<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One party who has incurable sanity at the time of marriage<br \/><br \/><\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In California, legal separations operate on a &#8220;no-fault&#8221; system, meaning you don&#8217;t need to prove wrongdoing for approval. For claiming incurable insanity, proof from a medical professional is necessary. Due to the difficulty of proving this, it&#8217;s advisable to seek guidance from a family law attorney.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Issues Does a Legal Separation Address?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every legal separation in California involves the same <\/span><b>fundamental issues<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Child Custody. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who has the authority to decide on the children of the marriage and where they reside.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Child Visitation. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The daily parenting plan, including holidays and vacations.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Child Support.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In California, \u201cguidelines\u201d are used to determine child subsistence based on each parent\u2019s income and the time the children spend with each parent.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Spousal Support.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sometimes referred to as alimony, the sub-issues of whether or not support is appropriate, the amount of support, and the length of time it should be paid must be addressed.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Property Division. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everything possessed, including retirement funds, bank accounts, and real estate, as well as furniture, fixtures, and appliances, must be split.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Debt Allocation.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This entails splitting everything due, including credit card obligations, personal loans, and tax bills.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Lawyer Costs.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A person may be required to pay the other partner\u2019s lawyer expenses because one has more means to pay legal costs than the other.
