FREE SAMPLE SEPARATION AGREEMENT 26 Page

A sample separation agreement provides an alternative for married couples who can't continue to live together but want - and need something more legally binding than simply living apart.

In the eyes of the law a couple is still considered married, but filing for legal separation serves to define the roles and responsibilities of each spouse.

These decisions are documented and approved by a judge by way of a court order, therefore, they are legally enforceable.
