Re: Temporary separtion

Typically, the answer to that question is "no" -- but the specific facts of your case could change that response.

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.
