So even if splitting up is the last thing on your mind right now, it’s sensible to plan for the future by creating a Living Together Agreement (sometimes called a Cohabitation Agreement). This will give you the peace of mind that however your relationship may change in the future, both people will be legally protected. You’ll know where you stand and if the worst happens and your relationship does break down, the legal implications will be one less thing to worry about.

We’ve helped lots of couples create Living Together Agreements. Many people find that it’s much easier to make this Agreement whilst in a strong, loving relationship rather than dealing with the consequences of a complicated break up at a later date.

We understand that every couple is different and so we’ll take the time to get to know you so that we can draft an Agreement that reflects your own circumstances. It will protect both people and detail your responsibilities in the event of a break up. With the agreement in place you can get on with your life, with the peace of mind that every eventuality is planned for.

At Jordans Solicitors we explain everything in plain and simple terms, answering any questions you may have and making the process easy to understand. We also offer free, initial over-the-phone advice and will explain the costs and timescales involved up front so you always know what to expect.

We can also set you up a Property Trust so that if for example you contribute differently to a deposit for a home, you will be able to get that back when the property is sold.
