Cohabitation

Does Common Law Marriage Exist?

Many people are under the impression that couples that are not married but that live together, also known as cohabiting couples, form a common law marriage.

Cohabitation – What are the risks?

At Watson Thomas Solicitors we provide legal advice and representation for clients who are just starting out in their relationship, such as when a Pre-Nuptial Agreement is required, as well as those who have reached the end of their relationship and are looking to separate or divorce. But not all couples choose to marry, and in recent years, there has been an increase in the number of couples choosing to co-habit rather than getting married.
