Legal Question in Family Law in California

My husband and I own a business that is failing fast. We have a house that has about $200.000 in equity, but we have $65000.00 in debt.

We have been separated for 4 months. I have an inheritance of about $90,000.00. I would like to invest some of my inheritance in a new business venture

But not if he would have any claim to it. I am planning on getting a divorce soon. Do I need to wait for the divorce or is it

possible to just have a legal separation?

You should immediately meet with an experienced family law attorney to be certain that you are segregating your separate property money in a way to prevent any community property claim.
