Cohabitation agreements
Similar to a pre-nuptial agreement this is designed to avoid disputes later on. It’s important, especially where financial contributions to a home differ and will be designed for your specific situation.
Relationship breakdown
If you are thinking of separation the law for cohabitees is complex, especially if you have children. It’s essential to get legal advice before you go any further – to protect everyone involved.
Protecting the children
When you have children it’s important that they know they’re important to both of you. To prevent them from being caught in the middle of a legal argument you’ll need expert advice.
