Fill and Sign the Va Do 11a Form

VA-DO-11A INSTRUCTIONS When should this form be used? This form should be used when the parties desire to enter into a Separation Agreement to be effective immediately. This form is for married persons with children with joint property or debts. This form is for the State of Virginia. This form should be completed on your computer, typed or printed in black ink. Both parties must sign the Agreement and have their signatures witnessed by a notary public. You may desire to print and sign duplicate originals so that both parties will have a signed original of the document. Transfers of Title to Property This form may not be sufficient to transfer title to property such as real estate, automobiles and other property to be divided. These transfers must be done by a deed, bill of sale, title or other instruction before the ownership is final. Opportunity to Consult with Attorney This Agreement provides that you were given an opportunity to consult with an attorney of your choice prior to execution of the Agreement. Divorce Proceeding This form provides that the parties intend to be bound by this Agreement as a contract between the parties regardless of whether a divorce action is filed. Certain conduct may invalidate the Agreement such as cohabitation and sexual relations with each other after signing the Agreement. If a divorce action is filed, the Court may or may not be bound by all provisions contained in the Agreement. For example, Courts generally have the final say about child custody, child support, alimony and other like matters.
