Specializing in Cohabitation Agreements

There are lots of rights that are applicable to married couples that don’t apply to unmarried couples. Such rights include protection against disinheritance, social security, prohibition from gift taxes, partner support obligations, and so on. Most people have this wrong believe that that they become “common law” spouses if they live with their partner for a period, which is not the case. However, unmarried couples can enjoy some benefits with Cohabitation Agreements.

What is a Cohabitation Agreement?

Cohabitation Agreements can be described as a contract to legalize the financial arrangements between cohabiting couples during their relationship.  Cohabitation Agreements covers the following:

  • The property interests of the couples during the relationship

  • Both parties must decide to create legal documents

    5 star review  I have used the service before and this was the reason I used again because the service Privilege Solicitors has provided was impeccable. I also have recommended others to use their services. They have acted professionally in dealing with my matters and kept me updated with my claim. The members of the staff were very polite and courteous. It is hard to find a company these days who are prompt and top of their games.
