Cohabitation

Cohabitation Icon

Our family law team have extensive experience in dealing with the many legal issues that can affect families. However complex or sensitive your situation may feel, we will work with you to find a practical and positive solution that meets the needs of you and your family.

We are frequently instructed by unmarried parties seeking advice on property disputes in circumstances where they have purchased a property together in unequal shares, but have not had this arrangement documented, or where they have moved into their partner’s home and their relationship has ended. We also provide help and advice with cohabitation disputes over finance or children.

As with pre-nuptial agreements, if you are planning on moving in with your partner or buying a property together, it’s important to plan ahead to help provide certainty as to what will happen should you later separate.

We are also able to assist with the drafting of a cohabitation agreement, before moving in together. This document outlines what will happen in the event that the relationship breaks down and can help to avoid costly disputes in the future.
