🏠💔 Legal Myth Busted!

Manager from Stainton Chellew

Myth: If I live with my partner for 6 months, we’re in a de facto relationship.

✅ Fact: In most cases, a relationship is generally considered de facto after three years of living together. However, it may be recognised as de facto earlier if the couple has a child together or if one partner has made significant contributions (financial or otherwise) to the relationship. Understanding your legal standing is crucial as it can affect property rights, wills, and what happens in the event of a separation.
