Contracts & Agreements

Whether you are considering marrying for the first time or taking a second trip down the aisle, or whether you are considering cohabitation in an opposite sex or same sex relationship, our family law specialists can provide the advice and planning that you need. It is always a sensitive subject to be embarking on a new relationship while at the same time considering the many implications of the relationship breakdown. However, there is no doubt that an ounce of prevention can prevent a pound of grief. Before your legal rights are compromised, you should speak to a member of our family law group to find out how you can contract out of the equal sharing of property regime to keep your home, company, investments or personal property owned on the date of marriage. Or, if you are considering cohabitation you need to understand the different treatment under the law of married and unmarried people.
