Cohabitation

How can we help?

The law treats cohabitation very differently to the separation of couples who are married or have formed a civil partnership. Unmarried couples have fewer legal protections, so it may be necessary to contact a specialist to outline the law regarding separation in cohabitation.

We can offer our advice regarding issues with finances, which are more complex for unmarried couples and generally rely on land law, to children disputes. It is worth noting there are few differentiations regarding child arrangements in married and unmarried couples.

There are still, however, ways of protecting yourself and we can support you through the process. It is recommended that unmarried couples should consider creating a legally binding cohabitation agreement to make the process of separation easier. If this isn’t possible, we are still able to help you understand the options available to you.

If you think you may need our help, or have any further questions, please contact us.

Mr H

Lucy provided services as my solicitor long-distance. I was residing in the US while my case was ongoing in the UK court. I had the pleasure of meeting her face-to-face for an initial consultation before my return to the US and she was very professional in all correspondence until matters came to a conclusion.

She was always very happy to answer questions thoroughly and schedule long-distance phone calls when I requested them. She has a very kind and professional nature. Needless to say, she made what could have been an exhausting process extremely painless. I highly recommend her.

Ms S 

I have had the pleasure of working with Sarah on some very complex and difficult cases over the years.  She never loses sight of the client’s objectives but makes sure they receive realistic and sensible advice. Her case preparation is excellent and she is always willing to go the extra mile when necessary. When I receive a brief from Sarah I know that the case will be conducted effectively and efficiently. She is a consummate professional and a delight to work with.
