    Cohabitation Matters

    Support for unmarried couples living together, including cohabitation agreements and separation disputes.

    Cohabitation Agreement & Unmarried Couples Solicitors in Windsor

    More couples than ever are choosing to live together without marrying or entering a civil partnership. However, cohabiting partners do not have the same legal rights as married couples — which can lead to complications if the relationship ends or one partner passes away.

    At Charsley Harrison LLP, our experienced cohabitation solicitors in Windsor help unmarried couples protect their interests through clear legal agreements and advice. Whether you're planning to live together or facing a separation, we're here to ensure your rights are safeguarded.

    Drafting and reviewing cohabitation agreements
    Advising on rights to shared property and assets
    Legal support for cohabiting parents

    Why a Cohabitation Agreement Matters

    Without a formal legal agreement, you may have limited rights to shared property, savings, or support — even after years of living together. A cohabitation agreement outlines how assets and responsibilities will be handled during the relationship and in the event of separation.

    When Things Go Wrong

    If your relationship breaks down, we can advise you on your legal position and help resolve disputes over property ownership, contributions, or financial support. We aim to resolve matters quickly and amicably, while protecting your interests.
