The end of a relationship is never easy. Parting ways after being married is especially difficult when you consider the legal aspects of the marriage contract. The team of divorce lawyers at Greene Law, PC, offers representation to clients throughout the state of Connecticut. They understand the unique challenges newly separating couples are facing.

Here, the experienced attorneys at Greene Law, PC, share three tips for successfully navigating a marriage separation:

• Make The Kids A Priority: If you and your spouse have children, they need to be your priority. Even if you think they don't know what's going on or they don't understand the extent of it, there's a strong likelihood that they actually do. Be civil to your spouse and work together to set up a provisional custody arrangement plan. Your family lawyer at Greene Law, PC, can help you accomplish this crucial step.
• Consider A Legal Separation: Some spouses choose to file a legal separation, which is basically a written agreement that outlines the rights and responsibilities of each spouse now that they are no longer living under the same roof. This can be a smart route to take if there is a lot of contention or a lot of financial considerations in the marriage. Your divorce lawyer will work with you to draw up a legal separation that is agreeable to both you and your spouse.
• Be By Yourself: A separation after a relationship often puts people in what may feel like a no-man's-land of isolation and loneliness. It's normal to feel this way, but flying solo for a while is likely just what you need. Balance social and work activities with alone time and get to know who you are as a single person. Amazing discoveries await you.

When you and your spouse are separating, be sure to empower, protect, and support yourself with all the resources you need. Call Greene Law, PC, at (860) 676-1336 to schedule an appointment with a divorce lawyer. You can also visit the firm's website to learn more about their services.
