FAQs
The answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
What is the difference between separation and divorce?
Separation allows couples to live apart while remaining legally married, whereas divorce legally dissolves the marriage. Separation agreements can cover important matters like property division and child arrangements without opting for a full divorce.
How long does it take to get a separation agreement in Scotland?
The timeframe for a separation agreement varies based on the complexity of your situation. Typically, with the assistance of an experienced lawyer, agreements can be finalized within a few months.
What does a separation agreement include?
A separation agreement can cover a range of issues, including the division of property, child custody arrangements, financial support, and any other key matters relevant to both parties.
Do I need a lawyer for a separation agreement?
Yes, it is advisable to have legal representation. A separation agreement is legally binding and must be carefully drafted to ensure fairness. At TC Young, we provide expert guidance to ensure your rights are fully protected.
Can I later convert my separation into a divorce?
Yes. A separation agreement often serves as a precursor to divorce. It provides a framework for resolving issues and can be converted into a divorce agreement if the couple decides to proceed with the dissolution of the marriage later.
