Zhang Wei and Wang Xiu Ying* had decided to separate and agreed how their property would be divided. Most of the property was held in trust but they could use the Agreeable automated agreement as a starting point for their agreement. Agreeable arranged for independent expert advice on the effect and implications of their agreement for each of them. After discussions and contact between the lawyers, a final agreement was signed by them and certified by the Agreeable experts. This cost them about $1,400 each and was done entirely online.

Any separating couples can create a separation agreement
What does a separation agreement contain?
A separation agreement outlines the important details involved in a separation. When the relationship started, when the couple started living together, when they separated. Details of relationship property (including the family home, chattels, cars, bank accounts, Kiwisaver, debts) and separate property. Any necessary adjustments are recorded. Each party must make full and proper disclosure of all property so that the other person and their lawyer knows what they are entitled to by law.
What are the benefits of a separation agreement?
A separation agreement requires the agreement of the parties. This means that it is significantly more efficient and less costly than the alternative, which requires a dispute being resolved either through the Family Court or alternate measures such as Agreeable’s Dispute Resolution service. The agreement provides clarity and helps resolve potential disputes. A separation agreement is also able to be enforced through the Courts, if required, provided it is executed correctly and each party has independent advice. Agreeable is able to provide this service in full. This is a flat fee service which can be purchased here. Agreeable will provide each party with an independent legal expert to ensure the agreement is legally binding and able to be used by banks and others to allow transfer of property.
