The preparation of a cohabitation agreement for a young female who had purchased a property using inheritance monies she had received from her late mother. Our client wished to live with her boyfriend but wanted to ensure that her inherited wealth was protected.
Acting for a lady who had been in a relationship with her partner for over 20 years but had not married. All of the family assets were in the partners name and it was necessary to make an application under the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act. Without making such application the division of assets would have been entirely unfair and our client would not have been able to rehouse herself.
Acting for a wife who had suffered years of domestic abuse and serious violence at the hands of her husband. Meeting with the client for the first time and on the same day attending court and applying for ex parte Family Law Act orders. We were successful in obtaining both a non molestation and occupation order and immediately arranged for the husband to be personally served with the orders by a professional process server. During the case we worked closely with the domestic abuse outreach service and the local authority.
Advising a male who felt locked in a very controlling same sex relationship where the behaviour of the partner becoming more extreme. A very stern warning was issued to the partner and we were then able to reach an agreement with him as to the division of assets enabling our client to end the relationship and move out of the jointly owned property.
