Cohabiting/Cohabitation

Living Together

“Cohabiting” refers to the act of living together as a couple in an intimate and committed relationship without being legally married or in a civil partnership.

Cohabitation is becoming increasingly common in many parts of the world as societal attitudes toward relationships and marriage continue to evolve. Many people choose to simply cohabit and either don’t feel the need to get married or simply want to make sure that this is the right thing for them.

If the relationship breaks down, this can be fraught with emotion and uncertainty, especially if financial or child care issues are involved so our team of experts are here to listen, help and guide you in order to reach the best outcome.
