Cohabitation law reform covers the emerging framework for financial provision and property rights when couples living together separate, where no marriage or civil partnership exists. A solicitor in this area advises on reforms proposed to protect cohabitants, drafts and negotiates settlements, and represents clients in discussions and court or tribunal matters related to finance, housing, and dependent rights after ending a cohabiting relationship. The work may be shaped by proposed legislation and long‑running policy reviews, and by the interaction with private wealth and housing matters.
This area involves navigating provisions that may be proposed rather than enacted, understanding how any reform would apply to property, savings, pensions and children, and managing the interaction with existing family law. A solicitor explains the potential protections a reform could bring, assists with negotiations and, where reform is enacted, supports clients to implement changes via settlements or court processes.
