Cohabitation AgreementsCohabitation Agreement • April 7th, 2009
In recent times there has been a significant increase in the number of people choosing to live together rather than marry. The Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006 which came into force on 4th May 2006 created a new legal framework for partners cohabiting without having married or, where they are same sex partners, without having entered into a civil partnership. Whilst the Act has not put such cohabiting couples on the same legal footing as married couples or civil partners it has created significant legal rights and obligations for such couples.
