Cohabitation Agreement

Over 500,000 people in Ireland live together without marrying. Without a cohabitation agreement, the law provides very limited protection if the relationship breaks down. Our solicitors draft a bespoke cohabitation agreement that protects both parties.

What’s Included

• Drafting of a cohabitation agreement tailored to your relationship and assets
• Treatment of the shared home — ownership, contributions, and what happens if you separate
• Joint bank accounts, savings, and financial contributions
• Personal property and assets brought into the relationship
• What happens if one partner dies
• Debt allocation
• Dispute resolution procedure

Both parties should obtain independent legal advice on the agreement before signing. We can act for one party; the other party will need their own solicitor.
