What is a Cohabitation Agreement?
A Cohabitation Agreement is a legally binding document that regulates both parties’ affairs regarding property, children, money, and other issues while you are living together. They can also deal with what happens if you separate.
What are the benefits of a Cohabitation Agreement?
If you and your partner aren’t married, unlike divorce proceedings, a court cannot revise any ownership or rights if you separate. Therefore, it is a good idea to make arrangements at the beginning.
Although it is difficult, it is important to think about what you want to happen if your relationship breaks down. If the worst does happen, the process will be made much easier by the agreement.
As long as you are currently living together, or plan to live together, you may enter into a Cohabitation Agreement with your partner.
