Cohabitation presents significant legal challenges due to the absence of a comprehensive legislative framework. Unlike divorce, where parties' rights are clearly defined by matrimonial law. The absence of automatic inheritance rights, pension sharing, or maintenance obligations (except for child maintenance) can leave economically weaker partners, often those who have sacrificed careers for childcare, in precarious financial positions. Rights that are clearly defined by matrimonial law are not extended to cohabiting couples. We can advise on Cohabitation Agreements to regulate the terms of your cohabitation.
