Key questions
|
For simplicity we use the words ‘he’ and ‘his’, but most answers apply equally to men and women and this is in no way meant to offend.

My partner and I are unmarried and living together. Should I make a Will including him?
Yes, assuming you want your partner to inherit from you. It is very important for unmarried partners to make Wills, as without them, the surviving partner may receive nothing when the estate is distributed.
Do I have any right to stay if my partner tries to kick me out of his property?
From Living Together
This will depend on the circumstances so you should speak to a specialist solicitor straight away.
Am I liable for the debts my partner has run up on our joint credit card?
From Living Together
Yes. The bank or credit card company can chase both of either of you for the whole debt.
Can my partner spend all the money in our joint account?
From Living Together
Any money put into a joint account is treated as jointly owned so either of you can remove it at any time, even if one of you put in more money than the other.
If I don’t have parental responsibility, do I still have to pay child support?
From Living Together
Yes. The Child Support Agency assesses all fathers in the same way.
