De Facto Relationships
A de facto relationship is one where two adults live together as a couple on a genuine domestic basis, but are not legally married or related by family. Issues related to property division, spousal maintenance, and child custody can arise when such a relationship ends, similar to those in a marital separation. At Kora Legal, we can help our clients define the legal status of their relationship, negotiate and draft agreements for property division or maintenance, and represent our client’s interests in court if disputes arise. In addition, we can assist in matters of child custody and support, always prioritising the best interests of the child.
