Living Together

At Birkett Long, we like helping people sort out the more mundane (but important!) parts of life. Our friendly and accessible lawyers can guide you through important decisions and documents such as wills, cohabitee agreements, premarital or pre-civil partnership agreements and the process of buying or renting your home.

If you’re living with someone, it’s vital you get your affairs in order to make sure your future, and that of your loved ones, pans out in accordance with your wishes. You might need to think about the following:

• Are there children from previous relationships to consider?
• Have you got a will? Does it need updating now you’re living with someone?
• Do you need an agreement about how much money each partner is putting into a house purchase?
• Do you want to protect your assets for the future?
• Are you buying or renting a house together?
• Are you assisting your child with a deposit?
• Do you want to protect your partner’s and/or children’s inheritance?

If you want to find out more about the different things you need to consider when living together, contact us now for a no obligation, free chat on the phone.
