Cohabitation Agreements
Many couples assume that they share the same rights as people who have either married or formed a civil union. Some only realise that this is not the case when the relationship changes. Our cohabitation solicitors can help you to create, or amend, an agreement, ensuring that your interests are protected.

Cohabitation Disputes
When an informal living arrangement becomes strained, the situation can quickly become challenging for all parties. Lowry Legal’s cohabitation lawyers specialise in high net worth relationships, so we’re perfectly placed to offer guidance that can resolve your dispute and help you move forward.
Our Collaboration Explained
When you instruct Lowry Legal upon your divorce, you will have the option to use a financial planner to assist with decision-making. Although there is no obligation for you to use ERF in this context, they will be one of your available options. Don’t worry if you have any questions about the process, as everything will be explained clearly during onboarding.
Generally speaking, the process involves collective meetings that should establish your goals throughout the divorce process and beyond. These conversations entail cash flow planning — with practical illustrations of current and projected settlement options, education around complex features like pensions, and post-settlement planning sessions.
All of this is designed to help you create your own future as you move with confidence into your next chapter.

Cohabitation Advice Tailored to Your Relationship
Every cohabiting couple has its own priorities for inclusion in their agreement. For some, home ownership is most important, while those with families are more likely to be concerned with what happens to children should the relationship break down. Lowry Legal understands that there isn’t a single solution, so our cohabitation solicitors will turn your personal objectives into practical goals.
When disputes happen over living arrangements, this can lead to extremely stressful conversations. Our skilled team excels at bringing couples together in a more collaborative way, helping them overcome any barriers and move forward.
