Living Together Print

Increasing numbers of people now choose to live together without getting married or entering a civil partnership. We can advise you about living with another person and ensuring that your interests are protected as well providing advice if there is a relationship breakdown.

If you have been living with your partner and you separate, your rights are different from those of a spouse or a registered civil partner. Unless you are the owner or joint owner of your home, you will not be entitled to a share of that property, unless you can show that it was held on trust for you. This is a complex area of law.
