There are plenty of free, and paid, online separation agreements. To be fair, some of these forms a not bad at all. However, when it comes to a divorce, one size doesn’t fit all. Your needs, your spouse’s needs, and your children’s needs are unique. In the end, you will be better served to speak with a lawyer about your situation before trying to cram the future of your family into a template separation agreement. Here’s just one of many examples why template divorce agreements don’t always work. In South Carolina, there are inheritance rights for a spouse when their husband or wife dies without a will. Just because you have a separation agreement doesn’t mean that these inheritance rights go away if the other spouse should die before the divorce is finalized. In the template forms I’ve seen, none of them address this issue. Again, this is just one of many examples of the short-comings of separation template forms.
