The new law has revamped the procedures for absolute divorce by reducing the separation period from 12 months to 6 months and also making it more accessible for couples to establish their eligibility. People in Maryland can now file a faultless petition to get divorced.
A settlement agreement differs from a separation agreement as it sets the terms for the divorce, not the separation. A settlement agreement should address all central issues of the divorce. This can include things like division of marital assets and debts, child custody, and child support, as well as spousal support.
You and your spouse must be separated for at least six months before filing for divorce based on separation. If you live separate and apart from your spouse because of a court order, that counts as separation. For example, the court may order one spouse to leave the home in a protective order (domestic violence).
There are three grounds for divorce: Mutual consent - You and your spouse can agree to divorce and sign a written agreement (called a marital settlement agreement) that resolves all issues related to alimony, marital property, and the care, custody, and support of any minor or dependent children.
There is no such thing as a legal separation in Maryland. If you and your spouse live separate lives for at least six months, you can file for divorce based on the ground (legal reason) of a 6-month separation.
