Re: legal seperation
I would recommend that you consider filing for divorce. Without knowing more, I could not address spousal maintenance except to say that you could possibly expect some amount of spousal maintenance for several months to a couple of years, but that would be affected by several factors. Spousal maintenance is aimed at getting the spousal on their feet financially.
