A: Whether you can stay depends on the terms of the Separation Agreement which would be attached to the Decree of Dissolution filed by the court. Review that Separation Agreement then talk to the attorney who handled your dissolution case. If you didn't have an attorney, that could be a problem. So use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local family law attorney to review the Separation Agreement and advise you of your options.
