Separation agreement hardship

Answer: You have mentioned that you have a Separation Agreement. In order to be responsible, I need to review it prior to providing you with a specific answer. As a general comment, I will note that Section 7 special and extraordinary expenses must be reasonable, and on the assumption that they are, they are to be shared proportionally based on the parties’ incomes. It is possible to change the wording of a Separation Agreement although I cannot comment about whether that would apply in your case without first reviewing the Separation Agreement and then speaking with you.
