cohabitation agreement
While a cohabitation agreement is designed to set out the financial consequences should the relationship break-up, it should also deal with other eventualities such as the death of a partner, disability or illness, unemployment, job relocation, and inheritance, to name
If a couple is living together as ‘husband and wife’ but are not married, there is effectively no marriage capable of dissolution and there can be no transfer of pension interest benefit.
In the absence of a formal agreement between the two parties, the couple’s financial arrangements can be particularly complex in the event of death or a terminated relationship.
