Hi guys, i just want to ask, do I need an attorney to make a Legal Separation Agreement? Any ideas or best suggestions that will expense less?

If your husband is amicable then you can do it yourself, but if he is
a jerk and is expected to cause trouble then I would recommend you
hire a lawyer to protect your interests.

It is not an absolute necessity but if you're anticipating problems with your ex, it is best to be safe than sorry. Although attorneys are expensive, it might be worthwhile to do things by the letter as well.

I second what others have said. If you think you can reach an agreement with your husband, you don't need a lawyer. You can do some online research and find out how exactly it is done and what papers you need.

It depends upon the situation. Well for the purpose of making the agreement clear and unbiased you need to have a lawyer. Just to be sure that either of the party is getting a biased treatment during separation. Also like what others said if you think he's responsible enough to follow simple rules then you two can sort things out without a lawyer.

My mom has had many bad relationships/divorces, so I'm a little sour when it comes to this subject. I say, trust no one just in case, because you never know what may happen that causes someone's feelings towards you/the relationship to change. Not to sound negative, but that's my biggest concern for you. However, follow your gut first and foremost, you know your situation better than anyone else.
