Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Cohabiting Couples in Scotland, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

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.

Keri-Anne Bradley

Tagged solicitor Keri-Anne Bradley

Wow. When pray for help, sometimes you get sent an angel. Keri-Anne Bradley At the family law group not only showed me genuine care, but she was straight with me. She took my case on even with a huge work load from other areas because she was genuinely concerned for my children and she put them first the whole way through. I felt safe with her and the trust was instantly there which I struggle with when it comes to solicitors due to past experiences with others! She got us the results we needed in an emergency situation and now my children are so much happier for it. The bar is set very high with this one! Absolute angel, and extremely professional. Thank you from me for your amazing service and my family would all like to say thank you as well!

Francesca Mears

Tagged solicitor Francesca Mears

Francesca has been absolutely amazing! Through out the process she has always been proactive, prompt to reply, patient and knowledgeable. I truly believe Francesca made this difficult, long and stressful process as smooth and bearable as it could possibly get. She gave me the right advice at the right time and always had time to answer my endless emails full of questions. She has been absolutely mindful as to not incur unnecessary legal costs for me. Always put me as her client first and did whatever was in my best interests. Thank you Francesca and thank you Andrew Isaacs!

Debra Lowy

Tagged solicitor Debra Lowy

Debra Lowy and the team at Evolve Family Law are outstanding, and I'd recommend them without hesitation. What I thought would be a straightforward, amicable divorce turned into something far more difficult and stressful than I ever expected, and Debra was an absolute rock throughout. She was always responsive, kept me carefully informed of costs at every stage, and had a way of steadying things whenever they threatened to spiral. Beyond the legal expertise, she genuinely had my back — she helped me see that bigger things were possible for my life than I’d allowed myself to believe, and I came out the other side of this stronger than when I went in. The whole team were supportive and lovely to deal with. If you’re facing any kind of divorce, Debra is exactly who you want in your corner.

Terina Farnan

Tagged solicitor Terina Farnan

Terina Farnan got me through a horrible divorce. It was one of the most stressful times in my life trying to deal with such a difficult situation and Terina talked me through everything stage by stage. Her knowledge is exceptional and she was very honest in her advice to me on how to proceed in a complex situation where the outcome could have gone either way. I can’t recommend her highly enough. The team at Downs were always friendly and supportive. Such an excellent service.

Chris TaylorZahra Nawaz

Tagged solicitors Chris Taylor and Zahra Nawaz

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Eaton Smith twice now, and both experiences have been fantastic. Chris assisted me with the EULA for my indie game, and his kindness, thoroughness, and incredibly fast email responses made the entire process seamless. Later, when I needed a solicitor for my prenup, I immediately turned to Chris, who connected me with Zahra. She was just as professional and kind, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. She even caught an error in our documents at 8 PM on a Friday and reached out immediately to help us fix it. Their level of attentiveness and professionalism is truly exceptional, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal services.
