A Marriage is a link or civil agreement by which two persons are united to live a common life with the rights and obligations determined by Law. Sometimes, a marriage does not work or fails due to different reasons that lead to the separation of the couple, being the most practical thing to do in these cases to seek the Legal System of Marriage Separation.

The Legal figure of Marriage Separation is thought up so that the couple, once their common life is over, have a chance to deeply think about the temporary or definitive marriage break-up.

Legally, in marriage separations, we can distinguish the Separation “de facto”, that means the plain ceasing of common life, and the “Legal Separation” which is the one developed according to Law.

Amongst the Legal Matrimonial Separations we can differ the following:

a) of “common agreement”, when both members of the couple materialize an agreement which will rule the new situation and present it to the Judge.
b) and “contentious”, when there is no agreement amongst the spouses and this forces the Judge to decide over the rules which will lead the new situation caused by the separation.

If you are thinking of separating, you should be aware that the legal effects of this situation are the following: the ceasing of common life, the extintion of the marriage regime you had previously decided (if any), the revoking of any powers amongst the spouses, of the use and enjoyment of the home of the spouses, effects over the “pater potestas” held over the children, such as the guard and custody of these, the establishment of pensions and alimonies in relation with the children and the other spouse
