Ending a Marriage without Divorce
It is possible to be divorced for all practical purposes without being legally divorced. A Nevada legal separation will end the various effects of marriage; for example, property purchased after a legal separation will not be considered community property. The Wright Law Office takes the same steps that we would in a proceeding to dissolve a marriage. We identify individual and community assets for property division. Child custody is determined. Child and spousal support is calculated.
When a Legal Separation is Your Best Option
The reasons for seeking a legal separation are different in each case. Legal separation may help couples end their marriage while preserving necessary health insurance for one spouse that has serious medical problems. We understand that religion is vital to many and a couple does not want to violate church rules. The reasons that people may wish to end their marriage, without actually gaining a Nevada divorce, are many. A legal separation also protects a husband or wife and their credit rating from a financially irresponsible spouse.
A legal separation can be handled quickly if the Parties in agreement on all the terms. If all terms are agreed upon, such a separation can typically be resolved within a few weeks.
If you need the protection and benefits of being legally separated from your spouse, then contact the Wright Law Office.
