#2 They Spend the Money on A REAL
Separation Agreement
Yes you need a Separation Agreement… and yes you need a real one! Skimping on the actual agreement is probably the biggest mistake people make when separating. Preparing, a real, legal, binding and enforceable Separation Agreement is how you properly prepare for your future. This is likely to be the most important document you will ever sign. Do it right. Create it properly from the beginning!
