Separate Maintenance Actions - Attorneys
Divorce Lawyers: Separate Maintenance Actions, Legal Separations in
Atlanta & Georgia
Although Georgia (unlike some other states) does not honor legal separations, it
does allow for separation maintenance actions. In short, a separate maintenance
action can be similar to a divorce case wherein the parties agree to an
equitable division of property, child custody, child support, and alimony. The
only major difference is whether the parties are still legally married.
Separate maintenance actions are especially useful for parties that are having
marital difficulties but want to keep working on the marriage. They can provide
the financial and emotional clarity that allows the parties to avoid these
concerns while working on saving their marriage. Used correctly, the can also
provide a road map for a divorce, or even a settlement of any future divorce, in
the event that the parties cannot resolve their differences without the parties
incurring any other significant legal fees for a later divorce.
