Marriage and Cohabitation Agreements

1. Why should I have a Marriage and Cohabitation Agreement?A Marriage and Cohabitation Agreement is an effective method to help avoid the often painful discussions that are required after the breakdown of a relationship. A Marriage and Cohabitation Agreement can pre-emptively outline how such matters such as Property Division will be dealt with should the relationship breakdown. While no one starts a relationship with the intention of it ending, a Marriage and Cohabitation Agreement is a step in setting out your intentions on how you wish to share your assets and debts.

   1. Custody;
   2. Parenting Time;
   3. Child Support;
   4. Property Division;
   5. Spousal Support;
   6. Debt Division; and
   7. Asset Division.
3. At what time should I create a Marriage and Cohabitation Agreement?While a Marriage and Cohabitation agreement can be created at any time, it is best if you have such an agreement before you move in together.
