Home › Separation Agreement Template BC
A blank separation agreement template hands you a long list of clauses to keep, delete, and fill in. The hard part is knowing which ones apply to you. Divii asks you simple, practical questions, then uses legal logic to choose the right clauses and fill in the correct inputs for your family. You never make a legal drafting choice on your own.
✓ One flat payment per agreement, from $895, spouse included, plus tax.
The honest comparison
Both end in a document. The difference is who makes the legal drafting choices along the way.
| A blank template | Divii | |
|---|---|---|
| Which clauses to keep | You decide what to keep, delete, and add, on your own. | Divii asks simple, practical questions, then uses legal logic to pick the right clauses for your answers. |
| How to fill in the blanks | You guess at the details and context each clause needs. | The correct inputs flow into each clause from your answers, with the context that makes them work. |
| Parenting time and holidays | You figure it out on your own and describe the arrangement yourself. | Use our parenting schedule and holiday planner tools to decide how to share time. You can be as flexible or as specific as you choose, down to transitions and pickups. |
| Child and spousal support | No help with the figures. Just fill in the blanks with what you agree. | Use our calculator that applies the Federal Child Support Guidelines and the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines, and have the correct, enforceable clauses written into the agreement. |
| Property and equalization | A line or two about who keeps what. No listing of the property, no calculations, and nothing prompting you on exclusions or an equalization payment. | Every asset and debt listed and valued in a Property Schedule where all the math is done automatically and each decision is articulated for you in your agreement. |
| Your spouse | Separate copies, emailed back and forth. | Option to have one shared file for both of you. Work together or separately, at no extra cost. |
| When a decision changes | You re-edit the document by hand. | Change the decision and the draft updates with it. |
| The finished document | An overly simplified document, often just a few pages. | A full, industry-standard BC Separation Agreement with the detail and context to stand up to scrutiny, exported to Word or PDF. |
Some people borrow a friend's agreement. Whatever you do, don't do that. Those clauses were drafted for that family's situation. You need to make the right decisions for your family and let the clauses reflect them. Divii guides the decision making, then translates your choices into standard legal clauses.
The tools
This is the difference between filling in blanks and being walked through them. Each tool helps you see your options, test them, and decide, and each decision lands in your agreement as a clause. Pick a tool to watch it work.
Build the rotation week by week and watch each parent's share of time update as the blocks land.
Decide every holiday once, not every year. Each decision is captured as a clause the moment you make it.
Child and spousal support run to the Guidelines, with the full range in front of you before you choose a figure.
Every asset and debt listed and valued in one table, with the equalization payment calculated for you.
See the portion of the pension earned inside the relationship before you trade it away.
The clauses assemble as your decisions land. By the time you finish deciding, the drafting is done.
Completeness
A Divii agreement is a full agreement, with all of the necessary detail a lawyer would include. This is the ground it covers. If you are working from a template, this list is also a useful audit of what yours needs to address.
Who you are, your children, your relationship dates, and the housekeeping details an agreement needs to stand on.
Parenting responsibilities, communication and decision-making, parenting time, holidays, travel, and the practical matters in between.
Use our calculator to determine the correct monthly child support details plus how you'll share special or extraordinary expenses. Once decided, Divii drafts the clauses in a way that is reliable and enforceable.
Use our spousal support tool to determine whether spousal support is paid, calculate how much, for how long, and on what terms, then the correct enforceable clauses get naturally added to the final agreement.
From the family residence to pensions, RRSPs, accounts, vehicles, and debts: every asset and liability is laid out in a table to help you understand and decide who is keeping what and what the final buyout numbers should be under the law.
The conclusions that finalize the agreement, release further claims and make it a complete, signable document.

How it works
From learning the law to a finished agreement, Divii breaks the journey into four steps and gives you the tools for each one.
Plain-language guides and videos explain how BC law applies to your situation. They sit beside every tool, so the answer is there when the question comes up.
Divii calculates child and spousal support to the Guidelines, divides property, and values the pension. You work with the same math lawyers use, and you can test as many scenarios as you need.
Work through parenting time, holidays, support, and who keeps what. You move at your own pace and in any order, and every decision is captured the moment you make it.
Each decision you make becomes a clause in your BC Separation Agreement. By the time you finish deciding, the drafting is already done.
Every tool, all education and videos, and your finished BC Separation Agreement. Per file, not per person, so your spouse joins at no extra cost.
