LEGAL SEPARATION
 

Legal Separation allows a couple to remain legally married, but to separate all financial aspects of their marriage, including the community assets and debts.  If there are minor children, issues of child custody and child support are also decided.  A Legal Separation may be appropriate for spouses who are contemplating divorce, but one spouse is reluctant to give up medical or other benefits that the other spouse may be able to provide through his or her job.  Or, a Legal Separation may be appropriate due to religious or other reasons.  However, if later a divorce is requested by either spouse, a new court filing must be done, and court fees paid again.  California does not impose any length of residency requirement prior to filing for Legal Separation.  When you are legally separated, you remain a married person.  Your property, your assets and your debts are legally separated from your spouse's property, assets and debts.
