If you are planning to move in with your partner, but do not currently have plans to get married, we can help you put a Cohabitation Agreement in place that makes it clear what each of your financial responsibilities are.
Your Cohabitation Agreement can cover a range of issues, including:
Who pays what share of the rent or mortgage
Who is responsible for paying which bills
How you plan on using a shared bank account
Who is responsible for any debts you incur while living together
Cohabitation Agreements can set out the financial terms of your relationship in a clear and transparent way, potentially preventing these issues from causing problems in the future. If you have personal assets you want to protect, such as investments, property or assets overseas, a Cohabitation Agreement can help you to keep them safe.
The best time to put a Cohabitation Agreement in place is before moving in together, but if you're already living with your partner, you can still set one up - maybe you want to formalise things now you're more settled, or maybe your circumstances have changed and now you want that extra peace of mind.
