Our work
At MSB, our family team recognises the breakdown of a relationship can be a traumatic. Having to deal with the practical and financial arrangements, which for many are new and unfamiliar, can be difficult.
We regularly work with our clients to:
- Help you understand your rights before you move in with someone
- Help you to secure your interest in the property before someone moves in with you
- Draft/advise on a cohabitation agreement
- Help you understand your options on breakdown of the relationship
- Advise you on related issues of conveyancing and civil claims as well as the drafting of wills

“I am a Family Court Advisor. I have instructed solicitors at MSB for a number of years and have found their approach to family cases professional, informed and courteous.”
Understanding the issue
Our team can provide expert advice regardless of whether you are moving in with someone or you are currently co-habiting with your partner. It is especially important should you intend to purchase a property together.
Whatever the circumstance, we will help you understand your options and support you in protecting your position. If necessary, we will provide you with the appropriate advice to secure your interest in the property to prevent difficulties at a later date. We will guide you through the entire process, ensuring that you fully understand the potential impact of any decision you make.
We are also on hand to support with developing documents and contracts such as co-habitation agreements, to reduce any uncertainty and ensure that your assets are protected in any given situation.
If a dispute should arise, this can lead to significant court and legal costs because of the complex issues involved. For this reason, it is important to obtain expert advice in this area. MSB’s family law team works closely with the conveyancing team and can also provide for Declarations/Deeds of Trust should they be needed.
