Legal Rights for Unmarried Couples | Fitz Solicitors

Here at Fitz Solicitors, we’re proud to offer our services as both corporate and personal solicitors. That being said, to those unfamiliar with UK law,

The major difference between corporate and personal solicitors is that personal solicitors represent individuals. 

For example, a personal solicitor will be able to help with issues of family law such as wills, divorces, and child custody. That being said, they’ll also be able to help you in your interactions with businesses.

Remember, the business solicitor in Buckinghamshire has no emotional bond. The solicitor takes an unbiased approach and listens to both sides. If there is a settlement to be reached, the solicitor will do so fairly. This is why you need to hire a business solicitor because your emotions can get the best of you. Solicitors have no emotional ties at stake.

Lease extension can be a long and challenging process. That’s why hiring a lease extension lawyer can be a massive help when it comes to avoiding common mistakes and understanding overall costs.

A divorce lawyer can be very effective in ensuring emotional situations run smoothly. The breakdown of a relationship is a very difficult time for any family and the right divorce solicitors will resolve matters in a practical manner. Our friendly and approachable team will work with you to fully understand your circumstances and what you are looking to achieve.

Getting the correct settlement that matches your desires can be possible when hiring experienced lawyers who communicate at a high level to deliver the results you want.

Whether it is because divorce is now more prevalent, or that the cost of weddings makes the act of getting married that much more dificult, but the number of cohabiting couples in the UK is on the increase. Yet despite this, fewer people realise the legal implications for them in the event that they split up with their partner.

The law does not recognise cohabiting couples and therefore makes no provision for what should occur following the break down of a relationship. Cohabiting couples will very often share finances, purchase joint assets and will often make contributions (not necessary equally) towards the expenses they incur.

Financial settlements used to be referred to as “ancillary relief” as it was considered to be ancillary to the divorce.  Although it is in fact a vital part of the process given that the settlement will shape your future.

We are pleased to state that the majority of our financial settlements are negotiated between the parties and solicitors without the need for protracted court hearings with the parties entering into a Consent Order.
