Legal Separation
You can file a Legal Separation in the State of
Arizona if you want to live a separate life from your spouse. A Legal
Separation separates the property and debts of the parties so you will no
longer be legally responsible for your spouse. A Legal Separation decides
custody, visitation and child support issues. You will remain married to your
spouse with a legal separation. If you believe that divorce is inevitable you
may want to consider filing for dissolution of marriage, as filing for Legal
Separation will only double the cost.
Dissolution of Marriage
In Arizona, unless you entered into a Covenant
Marriage, the only grounds for divorce is that "the marriage is
irretrievably broken" or "no fault." A divorce decides property,
debts, custody, visitation and child support issues. Arizona is a community property state, which
means (with very few exceptions) that all assets and liabilities acquired
during the marriage are joint assets and liabilities subject to division,
regardless of whose name they are in.

Child Support Modification
A child support modification is a process to
legally change the child support amount. Arizona
law allows parents to ask the court to change or modify the amount of child
support paid or received under a prior court order (the court makes the final
decision). Support modification is appropriate if there has been a change of
income of either parent, or other changes such as child care costs or health
insurance premiums.
