A cohabitation agreement is a practical solution for couples who live together but are not married or in a civil partnership. It outlines how property, assets, and responsibilities for bills will be divided in the event of a separation. While not inherently legally binding, a well-drafted cohabitation agreement, executed with the help of experienced solicitors, can hold considerable weight in court, offering a clear directive on the division of shared assets and responsibilities.
