MARITAL SETTELEMENT AGREEMENTS


Creating a Clear Path Forward After Divorce

At Document Divas, we understand that ending a marriage can be one of the most emotional and complicated experiences a person goes through. Whether your separation is amicable or has had its share of conflict, having a clear and legally sound Marital Settlement Agreement (MSA) can provide both parties with peace of mind. Our team specializes in preparing these important documents so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

We serve clients throughout California, both in-person from our Concord office and remotely. With our help, you can complete your MSA from the comfort of your own home without the high cost of hiring an attorney. We are not attorneys and cannot provide legal advice, but we ensure that your documents are accurately completed and ready for filing.



What Is a Marital Settlement Agreement?

A Marital Settlement Agreement is a legally binding document that outlines the terms of a divorce. It includes key details such as property division, debt allocation, spousal support, child custody, and parenting time. While the court must approve the final terms, a well-drafted MSA can significantly reduce the time and stress involved in the legal process.


Having a written agreement not only clarifies the expectations between former spouses but also helps prevent misunderstandings and potential conflicts down the road. At Document Divas, we’re here to ensure that your agreement is written in a clear, enforceable way that reflects the terms you and your spouse have agreed upon.



Our MSA Document Preparation Services

Our role is to take the complexity out of creating a Marital Settlement Agreement. We’ll gather the necessary information and prepare the documents tailored to your unique circumstances. Whether you’ve already agreed on all terms or still need help organizing the details, we can assist with:


  • Property and asset division
  • Debt division and responsibility
  • Spousal support (alimony) terms
  • Parenting plans, including child custody and visitation
  • Child support calculations
  • Health insurance and tax implications


We take a compassionate, judgment-free approach and ensure that your MSA covers everything it should—so there are no surprises later.
