Separation agreements can cover everything that is a problem for a couple, even things that the court would not ordinarily deal with or be able to deal with. | Separation agreements can cover everything that is a problem for a couple, even things that the court would not ordinarily deal with or be able to deal with. | ||
Separation agreements are binding from the moment they are signed by both parties. They operate from the time they are made and, where children, child support or spousal support are issues, they continue to operate indefinitely into the future. Theoretically, a separation agreement will be binding on the parties until they die. In practice, however, most people stop relying on the agreement once the children have grown up, left home and become independent, even though the agreement may continue to be legally binding on them. | Separation agreements are binding from the moment they are signed by both parties.
