The myth of the common law partner has caused many couples to believe that they have the same legal rights as a married couple who divorce. The reality is that the financial rights of cohabitees and those in respect of children from the relationship could not be any more different.
At Evergreen Solicitors, our experienced legal team will provide you with advice and discuss the option of entering into a Co-Habitation Agreement, setting out the arrangements for the children and the ownership of assets, should the relationship breakdown.
