Things to consider before you separate:

While still married and living together with your spouse, it is advisable to save all of the receipts for major purchases and prepare an inventory of all of the property and assets acquired during the marriage. Make sure you have all of the important papers and documents including deeds to real property and income tax returns.

Keep accurate financial records and copies of insurance policies. It is a good idea to have title and registration of your car or truck in your name; and keep an accurate inventory of your safe deposit box.
