Cohabitation Agreements Edinburgh
You should strongly consider putting in place a cohabitation agreement if you are thinking of moving in with your partner or have been living with your partner for some time and have decided not to get married or enter a civil partnership.
A cohabitation agreement's purpose is to primarily deal with what should happen in unfortunate and unforeseen events such as your partner passing away or your relationship breaking down. The agreement is tailored to your individual needs and covers situations including asset distribution in the event of separation.
