I hope this is an easy question. Me and my soon to be ex-wife have come to an agreement on our divorce. We sat down and wrote out a rough draft for the separation agreement. But, we are not filing divorce papers until after the holidays (Christmas). We are, however, going to have our separation agreement and child custody/support agreement finalized and notarized. We both want to have the agreements notarized before we file to protect both of us. My question is: Once we have the agreements notarized is it binding? The reason we want to do the agreement like this is so we are both protected in some way. We are going to file a no fault divorce in the beginning of January. So far we both have been very decent to each other, but you never know what the near future may hold. We just want to get this done as soon as and as mutually as possible. Thank you in advance, Kip
