Legal Side of Separation | Separated But Still Living Together
• 33 minCan you really separate while still living together? With rising living costs and Australia's housing crisis, more couples are choosing to separate under one roof. But what does that actually mean for your legal rights, your children, your finances, and your emotional wellbeing? In this episode, I sit down with family lawyer in residence Dani Zetzer from Respect Legal to unpack one of the most misunderstood aspects of separation. Together, we explore the legal realities, common misconceptions, and practical strategies for navigating life when moving into separate homes simply isn't possible. Whether you're considering separation, currently living under the same roof as your former partner, or supporting someone through this transition, I hope this conversation provides compassionate, practical guidance to help you feel more informed and supported. Resources Mentioned Family lawyers, parenting coaches, child psychologists, accountants, GPs, Services Australia, Family Tax Benefit, Child Support, and domestic violence financial assistance programs.
