Can You Be Legally Separated and Not Know It?
Spouses and parents who feel their marriage or relationship is in trouble, frequently ask about how to go about getting a legal separation. But some of them may be legally separated already, even if they do not know it!
There are no formal steps that anyone has to take to separate from their spouse. However, the date a couple separates can be very important, especially for married couples and can really affect how things work out, especially financially.
Since the date of separation is not necessarily the date that one spouse moves out, in this episode of the Ontario Family Law Podcast, Certified Specialist in Family Law, John Schuman, explains how to know if you are separated.
