Bec Dahl: Law Talk – Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Separating From Your Partner But Were Afraid to Ask

Kids & Family, Law, Relationships

In the context of the law, being separated means the ending of an intimate partner relationship, which includes marriages and de facto couples. Separation occurs when at least one person in the relationship decides to separate, acts on that decision and tells the other person.

How do you prove you are separated? Why is the separation date important? What happens if I want my ex to leave and they will not?
