If I leave the marital home what are my rights?

You do not lose any legal rights by leaving the marital home. You maintain the right to re-enter, access and occupy the property, even if you have moved out.

The only exception would be if there is a Court Order excluding you from the property.

If the marital home is in the sole name of your spouse, you should register a ‘home rights notice’ with the Land Registry to prevent the sale, transfer, or remortgaging of the family home without your knowledge.
