Document background
A Non Legal Separation Agreement is utilized when married couples want to live separately while maintaining their legal marriage status. This document is particularly useful for couples who are uncertain about divorce, need time to consider their options, or have religious or personal reasons for avoiding divorce. The agreement typically covers living arrangements, financial responsibilities, property division, and if relevant, child custody and support arrangements. While not legally binding in US courts like a formal separation agreement, it serves as a written record of the parties' mutual understanding and can later inform legal proceedings if the couple decides to divorce.
