FAQs: Cohabitation
Do cohabiting couples automatically receive legal rights after living together for certain time?
No. Contrary to popular belief, there is no automatic entitlement or status as a “common law spouse”. Legal rights must be specifically arranged through formal agreements or documentation.
Are cohabitation agreements legally enforceable?
Yes. Provided they are properly drafted and signed by both parties, cohabitation agreements are legally enforceable and recognised by UK courts, greatly reducing potential disputes.
Can I claim financial support if my relationship ends?
Unlike married couples, cohabiting partners don’t have automatic rights to financial support upon separation. However, legal claims may be possible regarding property or shared assets.
What happens to jointly owned property if we separate?
If you jointly own property, it depends on how the property ownership is structured. The property may need to be sold or one partner may buy out the other’s share, according to a pre-agreed arrangement or court decision.
How can I protect my finances when cohabiting?
A professionally drafted cohabitation agreement clearly outlines financial arrangements, ownership of assets, and responsibilities, significantly safeguarding your financial position and providing greater certainty.
