FAQ 2

• My spouse and I want to sign a separation
  agreement. Can we take that to a notary?

5
Answer

• In most cases, a separation agreement will not be
  legally binding unless each party has independent
  legal advice. A notary will not want to advise
  you on a separation agreement as part of a
  notarization and he or she will not be able to
  advise both you and your spouse.
• Also, a notary may not even be
• knowledgeable about divorce
• and family law. As such, you
• and your spouse should find
• qualified family lawyers to
• prepare and review your separation agreement.
