This work covers the rights and duties of people who live together or are in an enduring relationship but are not married. A solicitor advises on cohabitation arrangements, ownership of property, trusts and declarations of beneficial ownership, child arrangements, and financial provision on separation. They draft and review cohabitation agreements, advise on securing rights to the family home, and, if needed, assist with negotiations or court applications to enforce or adjust financial claims.
Where a solicitor protects your position
Cohabitation disputes can affect how property is owned and how financial provision is secured if a relationship ends. A solicitor provides protection through properly drafted documents, awareness of trusts and beneficial ownership, and guidance on timely steps to preserve rights and avoid irreversible losses.
