Cohabiting couples in England and Wales generally have no automatic right to a shared home or to a partner’s assets when the relationship ends. A solicitor can help with planning ahead through cohabitation agreements, or with disputes arising from living together, such as property ownership, housing matters, and parenting arrangements. They also advise on how to resolve financial claims where evidence supports a result based on trusts, implied terms, or contributions to the home. The practical work often involves drafting or reviewing agreements, advising on rights under property law, and representing clients in related negotiations.
The work typically involves assessing how property is held or contributed to, identifying potential claims based on resulting or constructive trusts, and advising on how to protect interests through formal or informal agreements. It may also involve negotiating settlements or disputing ownership in disputes that arise from cohabitation, with reference to housing rights and family considerations.

I phoned several solicitors and they complicated a simple problem saying I would have to do this and that and it was the only way .and it would cost me from 850 pounds up to 1700 pounds . I felt let down as what I was asking for seemed simple . I then looked at review sites and noticed BTMK stood out . so I gave them a ring . And straight away was informed I didn't really need any solicitors all I had to do is wait a few months and the problem I thought I had wouldn't be a problem at all . How honest was that !!!. What a relief it is to find Honest people with good advice. Thank you BTMK. If I need a solicitor in the future I will surely come to you .

Lisa Honey is my 3rd solicitor from Tees dealing with my divorce and sorting out overseas pension. It’s over 8 years since this started and I can honestly say Lisa has done more in the past few months than the others did put together. When I met her recently she was friendly and understanding of the situation as I was getting to the stage of was this really going to end . She explained everything that she was doing so I understood and has kept me up to date on what’s going on . I can only say that she is an asset to your company and I hope you appreciate that . As Solicitors go she a star . Liz wiseman

Tagged solicitor Nimalee Bastian-Carter
I was recommended to Judge and Priestley by a friend. Our situation was extremely difficult, we required a home visit. I thought this would be difficult but the appointment was arranged without any hesitation. The advice we were given was explained in a very helpful and friendly manner, it was very clear which made it easy for us to understand. I would use your services again, and recommend your company to other friends.
