Pre Nuptial & Cohabitation Agreements

These days couples who are planning to live together or to marry can sign up to binding financial agreements which set out how property will be divided in the event of a relationship breakdown. Such an agreement can be the foundation of a good relationship because it allows a couple to concentrate on romance instead of worrying about the implications of separation.

It is even possible to enter into a binding agreement during a relationship, but it is best done as early as possible.

Our family law specialists have plenty of experience in helping people decide whether they need an agreement, what they should put in it and how to make sure they have their partner’s support for having an agreement.

De Facto Relationships

These days the parenting and property settlement aspects of de facto relationships are dealt with by the Family Courts under the Family Law Act. However there are important differences in property law between de facto and marriage relationships.
