Occasionally, because of religious or cultural reasons or because the marriage is not yet 12 months old a separating couple may not want a divorce but would rather have a judicial separation. At the conclusion of the judicial separation, the couple are not formally divorced but are free from the duty to live together.
The conclusion of a judicial separation will have a different effect on financial proceedings, pensions, state benefits, and Wills, to divorce proceedings.
There are a lot of matters to be considered on a Judicial Separation and whether it is the right and indeed the most economical step to be taken.
If you are considering a judicial separation, please make an appointment to meet with one of our colleagues in the Family Department.
