In England, Unmarried Couples' Rights covers cohabitation and the financial implications when a relationship ends, including property interests, household contributions, and children arrangements where applicable. A solicitor in this area drafts and reviews declarations of trust and cohabitation agreements, negotiates settlements on property and finances, and advises on potential claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act or on making a claim for beneficial interests in property where appropriate. They liaise with financial advisers and, if needed, represent clients in negotiations or court proceedings to protect their position.
The work involves identifying who owns what in shared property, assessing contributions (financial and non-financial), and explaining potential claims on a sale, remortgage or trust reallocation. It requires careful disclosure, negotiation or court procedures to secure a favourable arrangement, and may involve pension sharing considerations and child arrangements if children are involved.
