The Separation Checklist

Everything you need to gather, protect, and do when you separate — in one clear, practical list.

Separation Checklist

When a relationship ends, it’s hard to think straight — let alone remember every account, document, and decision that matters. This free checklist walks you through it, step by step, so nothing important slips through the cracks at the worst possible time.

  • The financial documents to gather (and why each one matters)

  • The accounts, assets and debts to account for

  • Immediate steps to protect yourself and your children

  • What to think about when it comes to the family home

  • The questions to ask before you make any big decisions

  • What a separation agreement should actually cover

Why we made this

We created this checklist because we watched too many good people make rushed decisions simply because no one had told them what to think about. Knowing what’s ahead takes the panic down a notch. Use it freely.
