Civil Partnership and Cohabitation

The law in Scotland has changed radically in recent years. For the first time in our history, Scotland has recognised and bolstered the rights of same-sex couples, and also of those who are happy to live together without getting married.

If you need some legal advice on your civil partnership, or about the rights you have when you have just been living with someone, our team of family lawyers are at hand to assist. As the laws regulating such relationships are still relatively new, you may wish to make sure that you are clear about your legal position, for example in the event that your relationship breaks down, or if your partner passes away.

It would also be wise to ensure that you know your rights and obligations in relation to children in your care, as the law concerning this aspect of your relationship differs from that regulating married couples.

Please call us today using the numbers below, or contact us through our site.
