Re: legal separation
Filing for legal separation, is similar to filing for divorce, (dissolution of marriage petition). Property acquired after separtion is separate property unless community funds were used to purchase it. Your husband may be entitled to spousal support if you have been supporting him. But support soes not last indefinately. Please call me directly at (619) 222-3504.
