"Deed of Separation" does not exist. You can file for separation however you may as well file for divorce. Divorce is easier. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659.
The parties can have a written separation agreement prepared to cover custody, visitation, child support, alimony, distribution of marital assets etc.
There is actually no legal separation in Florida. You can prepare documents but I doubt that they would hold up in court. I suggest you go ahead and file a Petition for Divorce and outline your marital agreement. It is much cheaper and can be done within a week for a divorce. If I can be of assistance please contact my office 904-997-1031
