Legal Separation
A court of law is the only way in which one can obtain a divorce decree, legal separation, nullity, or other form of terminating a marriage. Other than the termination of the marital estate the court also has jurisdiction to resolve the other issues which are intertwined in the existing marriage, which include but are not limited to, custody and visitation rights, division of property of the marital estate, spousal support, child support, restraining orders, and the like. However, if the case is uncontested, the Divorce can be processed by Affidavit and neither party has to appear in court at all.
