Marital Settlement Agreements in a Liberty County Georgia divorce case

Savannah GA divorce law firm

A settlement agreement describes the terms of the divorce and the relationship between the two parties following the divorce. These agreements usually provide for property division, child custody, child plans, debt division, spousal support and any other relevant issues arising from the divorce.

While it is not required, filing a marital settlement agreement does have some advantages:
• Provides all of the agreements in writing, avoiding uncertainty.
• The parties might not have to go to court. The judge may uphold the written agreement if its written appropriately and covers all material aspects of the divorce.
• Shows to the court that major issues were thought out, and the case will move more fast though the system.

Marital settlement agreements can be executed at any time prior to the final order. They are typically filed with the final judgment.

If a party is on welfare, the District Attorneys office may be required to look at and sign the marital settlement agreement prior to court filing.
