Separation Agreement Template for a Married Couple

Breaking up a marriage is hard enough without going to war over the property settlement. Many couples are choosing a better, more peaceful way of dismantling their life together.

Take for example – Tony and Lisa. They tied the knot 15 years ago, built a business and home together, had three children and dreamed of the day they would retire on the coast. But the stresses and demands of modern life took its toll and they slowly grew apart.

They have decided to separate and even though they are going to live apart, they still get on and want to maintain a friendship. After all, they have 3 kids and are going to be seeing each other on a regular basis.

Both are committed to managing the separation in a way that minimises the disruption to the children. The idea of squabbling over “who gets what” via curt letters issued by a law firm doesn’t seem right, and neither are keen to go down the road of legal proceedings.

Finding a better way to separate

Fortunately Tony and Lisa had a pretty good idea of how they could work things out and both agreed staying out of court would be substantially cheaper and less stressful.

They just needed to work out the finer points and put their agreement in writing.

After some research, they discovered that they could make a Financial Agreement between themselves that would set down how they wished to divide their property.

Financial Agreements provide the Framework for settlement

By using this legal marriage Separation Agreement template along with the guidance notes and samples provided, Tony and Lisa were surprised how easy it was to draft their own agreement.

It covered issues such as:

the transfer of the family home into Lisa’s name;
how the investment properties were dealt with (some were sold and one was kept for Tony);
who got what in relation to cars, furniture, the share portfolio and savings;
superannuation; and
whether maintenance would be paid.

Issues that dealt with child support and visiting rights were dealt with in other documents such as a Child Support Agreement and Parenting Plan.

Once they were both happy with the agreement they obtained the legal advice as required by the Family Law Act for a low fixed fee of $ (which provided an independent family law expert for each party).

It was a simple process, completed in their own time, without spending a fortune or even leaving home.
