It is not required to file for a legal separation before getting a divorce, but in many cases it is smart to do so - particularly when there are children or assets/debts involved.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
