Legal Separation
A legal separation allows you to live apart, without divorcing or ending a civil partnership. You can apply for a judicial separation for the same reasons/grounds you could file for a divorce or end a civil partnership.
You may want a legal separation if:
- you have religious reasons against divorce
- you've been married or in a civil partnership for less than a year
- you want time and space to work out if you want to end the marriage or civil partnership
Judicial separation is a very difficult decision to make and should never be taken lightly. Our team of family law solicitors is aware of the sensitivity of this matter and every individual is in a different situation.
