It is more common than ever before for couples to live together before they get married or enter into a civil partnership.
But remember that you do not have as many rights as married couples or civil partners. For example, you do not have a right to claim a share of your partner’s solely owned property if you break up, even if you have lived together for years and it is as much your home as theirs. There is no just thing as a common law marriage, so do not be caught out.
Our specialist cohabitation solicitors can help you take steps to protect yourself, including entering into a cohabitation agreement (also known as a living together agreement) to set out ‘who owns what’ and what should happen to your money and property if you ever break up. We know it is not the most romantic notion, but it could save you a lot of heartache later on.
We also help people who are going through break ups with their partner, including providing advice about dividing property, interpreting cohabitation agreements, making property claims and resolving issues involving children.

Our Guildford family lawyers specialise in non-confrontational family law. This means we take all possible steps to help you sort out the problems affecting your family without going to court (wherever possible).
Avoiding court is usually faster, cheaper and less stressful for everyone involved. We use two main methods for doing this – family mediation and collaborative law.
Our qualified mediators can help families work out positive solutions to a wide range of problems, from divorce financial matters to agreeing co-parenting arrangements.
The mediator’s role is to guide conversations between you and the other party, helping you explore the possible options, iron out snags and defuse conflict. They do not take sides or make a decision for you, so any agreement you make will be entirely down to you.
Like mediation, our collaborative lawyers are specially trained to help families come to out-of-court agreements about a wide range of family law issues. Unlike mediation, collaborative lawyers provide you will legal advice and negotiate with the other party on your behalf so can be helpful to sort out more complex problems.
Our team also have experience helping people make family court applications where out-of-court agreement is not possible.
Our expertise includes helping people make urgent or emergency applications or assist people facing legal action for family law issues. For example, if your ex-partner has applied for a Child Arrangements Order.
