There has been a recent trend in unmarried, cohabiting couples in that they are seeking some type of legal protection similar to that of a prenuptial agreements.
These binds are seeking to protect each partner’s financial assets as well as child custody issues. These contracts are still drawn up by an attorney and when surveyed, 39 percent of divorce attorneys have stated that they noticed an increase in the number of ‘co-habitation’ agreements.
These agreements are most common when an unmarried couple decides to buy a house together in order to protect assets if the couple splits up later down the road.
