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.

Kerry Sauntson

Tagged solicitor Kerry Sauntson

I was looked after by Kerry Sauntson, and her colleagues Ben Parker and Leah Dujon. Whenever Kerry was unavailable Ben and Leah stepped in and ensured my case proceeded as smoothly as possible. On the day of my Court Hearing Leah spent the whole day with me, despite the fact that we were not required for much of the time. Both Ben and Leah are a credit to Calthrops and the way in which Kerry allows them to gain experience at first hand. I could not have been happier at my choice of Calthrops as my solicitors.
