Legal separation
A court order or written agreement in which a married couple agrees to
live separately while still remaining legally married. Many people confuse
the idea of separating (living apart) from Legal Separation. Legal Separation
is a legal term which describes a process which is very similar to divorce,
with the same rights and responsibilities, but which does not result in
your being divorced at the end. Some people choose Legal Separation for
religious reasons, or in order to stay on a spouse’s health insurance
plan.
