COHABITATION AGREEMENTS

If you’re in a long-term relationship and living together, your property is likely to become mixed with your partner’s. You might even make big purchases together, like buying a home. But if the relationship ends, you could face months of complicated and stressful legal battles over how to divide those shared assets.

At LJ Law, we have extensive experience in property division and family law matters. If you’re going through a breakup, we’re here to offer advice and represent you to ensure your rights are protected.

We recommend that anyone living with a romantic partner have a cohabitation agreement. Living together without being married creates legal and financial challenges if the relationship ends, especially if unexpected issues arise or a breakup happens. There are often disputes over property, debts, taxes, and other shared responsibilities. Our lawyers are here to help you understand your options and navigate these issues. We can set up a cohabitation agreement if you are living with a romantic partner to protect both individuals financial interests and to help parties navigate what should happen should a breakup occur.
