About this form
This agreement records the terms both spouses have agreed to, so the final decree can incorporate them.
See page 1 of the actual blank form and review a plain-language outline. The complete formatted documents are delivered after checkout.
SEPARATION AGREEMENT (MARITAL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT) — WITH MINOR CHILDREN (PublicLegal-authored). The PublicLegal-authored Montana agreement both spouses sign to settle property, debts, maintenance, parenting, and child support. Montana publishes no official statewide settlement form.
What it records: property and debt division with schedules, custody and parenting time, and child support under the official guidelines (Mont. Code Ann. §§ 40-4-204, 40-5-209) — child terms always remain under the court's best-interests review (§§ 40-4-201(2)/(6), 40-4-212).
Bundled: the proposed Final Parenting Plan (§ 40-4-234), the child-support calculation guide (official CSSD worksheets/tables), and the property and debt schedules.
Signing does not divorce you: the agreement must be incorporated into the decree the judge signs; final disclosure (§ 40-4-253) and the filed § 40-4-254 certificate come first.

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 5 documents listed on this page, delivered in Word and print-ready PDF formats.
Yes. Both spouses sign the PublicLegal-authored Separation Agreement — Montana publishes no official statewide settlement form. Before or at signing, each spouse must serve the final declaration of disclosure (§ 40-4-253) and then file the certificate of service (§ 40-4-254); the court may not enter a property judgment without it. The court may incorporate the agreement into the decree (§ 40-4-201). Signing the agreement does not divorce you - the judge does.
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 Montana attorney if you have significant assets, debts, or any disagreement about the settlement terms.
