Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Julie A. Ringquist
Yes, you may be Legally Separated, but stay in the same home. No, there is no required time span necessary before filing for Dissolution (divorce). Once you file for Dissolution, the mandatory 6 month waiting period will begin the day after your spouse is served with the Dissolution court paperwork.

Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
Your husband is only entitled to any asset or debt acquired or incurred from the date of your marriage through the date of your separation. Anything you acquired in the last nine years from your earnings or from gifts or inheritances is your separate property. You should list all such items as your separate property on the appropriate declaration when you file for divorce.
