A legal separation, as opposed to a common separation, requires that a case be filed with the local court and a court order being entered granting the separation. The benefit of a legal separation is that you can legally divide property, obtain child support and maintenance, and do many of the other items you can accomplish with a divorce. However, with a legal separation, the parties are still married. Therefore, they are not free to marry other individuals, but the parties can still remain on their spouse's insurance.
