Is a Cohabitation Agreement legally binding?

A Cohabitation Agreement is a legal document which outlines the rights and responsibilities of unmarried couples who live together. It can include arrangements for finances, property, and children during cohabitation, and specify what will happen in case of separation, illness, or death. To ensure it is legally binding – both parties must freely enter into a written agreement, and they must be honest about their finances. A professionally drafted Cohabitation Agreement offers cohabiting couples, protection, clarity, and peace of mind.
