At Chamberlins we believe you should obtain legal advice as soon as possible if your relationship has broken down.
There are many issues to consider including advice about any children of the relationship and/or property and other assets.
It is important for children that they are kept out of disputes between adults as much as possible.
The children have a right to see the parent that does not live with them on a regular basis, and this should include overnight contact.
If you are not married you do not have an automatic right to a share of the assets accumulated during the relationship, unless you can prove the asset is a joint one.
