- Date:
- State: Nevada
Answer:
There is no particular form of such a notice. However, you probably need to consult an attorney about a Marital Separation Agreement.
A Marital Separation Agreement (or Settlement Agreement) is a legal binding agreement between you and your spouse, which resolves many issues like, property and debt division, spousal support, child custody, visitation, child support, insurance coverage, just to name a few (a separation agreement typically addresses over 30 essential issues).
The separation agreement has two primary purposes:
1. A separation agreement can settle all of your issues for the period you and your spouse separate until the time of divorce. Some separations can last several months or even years, so it is very important to protect yourself and have all the necessary issues settled between you and your spouse agreed to in writing.
2. A separation agreement is the final legal document you and your spouse will use to settle all your marital issues in order to get a final judgment or decree for divorce granted by the judge.
