Frequently Asked Questions About Delaware separation agreement Forms

A written agreement between spouses that divides property and debts and sets out custody, visitation, and support terms for minor children. Courts generally expect it filed with the divorce so the final decree can incorporate its terms.

The 6 documents listed on this page, delivered in Word and print-ready PDF formats.

Yes — and notarization is required. Both spouses sign the PublicLegal-authored Separation Agreement before a notary (Delaware expressly says a separation agreement "is NOT a Court form"), and both sign the official Form 443 Stipulation to Incorporate — also notarized — so the court can enforce the agreement as an order (§ 1519). Check the "Incorporate our Separation Agreement" box on the Petition (Form 442 §IV). Signing the agreement does not divorce you — the court enters the decree (§ 1517(a)).

This form works when both spouses have reached full agreement. If you disagree about property, debts, custody, or support, mediation or attorney help is the safer path before filing.

No. ILRG provides self-help legal forms and information, not legal advice. Consult a Delaware attorney if you have significant assets, debts, or any disagreement about the settlement terms.
