Did you know? Spouses must live separately for at least one full year (or six months if they have no minor children) and have a signed marital settlement agreement before filing for a no-fault divorce in Virginia.

But what exactly qualifies as “living separately?” Does moving into another room in the same house count? And how can you prove separation in court if you and your spouse agree to a DIY divorce?

Understanding the legal requirements can help you avoid delays and keep your DIY divorce on track. With My Legal Case Coach on your side, you’ll have the tools and support — including expert legal form packets and 1:1 virtual coaching — to take control of the process. See how MLCC can help you by scheduling your free 15-minute consultation today: mylegalcasecoach.com/15.

When a loved one passes away, their property and assets may be subject to Probate — a legal process that is required when a person dies with assets in their sole name, with no named pay-on-death or transfer-on-death beneficiary, or a beneficiary so-named dies with that loved one.

Probate is a court-supervised process that can involve many different steps and forms to be followed in order to ensure a deceased person's debts are paid, if applicable, and assets properly distributed to the beneficiaries named in their Will or, if no Will, to their heirs-at-law. A Will does not avoid probate; it is the tool used by a person post-death to indicate the method by which the court will approve a named Executor to serve in that role, and further supervise the distribution of the assets through the Will to ensure they end up being distributed to the proper persons.

Probate is a very serious responsibility to undertake, and mistakes in paperwork or missed deadlines can cause frustrating delays — not to mention potential liability. My Legal Case Coach simplifies the process with DIY legal case form packets tailored to Virginia courts, complete with step-by-step instructions to help you prepare your documents correctly. Each packet also includes one free hour of coaching with a licensed Virginia attorney, giving you expert guidance on filing petitions, fulfilling executor duties, and avoiding probate pitfalls.

When an adult becomes unable to manage their financial affairs due to age or incapacity, family members may need to step in to help. In Virginia, there are two primary legal options: conservatorship and power of attorney (POA). But what’s the difference?

🔹 Power of Attorney is a voluntary agreement where an individual grants someone else the authority to make financial decisions on their behalf. It requires the person granting POA to be of sound mind at the time of signing.
🔹 Conservatorship is a court-appointed role, granted when an adult is unable to make financial decisions for themselves. Unlike POA, this process involves petitioning the court, presenting evidence, and demonstrating that the individual cannot manage their own financial matters.

If you’re considering a conservatorship for an incapacitated loved one, My Legal Case Coach can help you through the legal process. Our Virginia-specific legal form packets and 1:1 virtual coaching provide step-by-step guidance to ensure everything is handled correctly.
