In Nova Scotia common law couples can register as domestic partners, which gives you some of the same rights as a married couple. For best protection, you should have a Cohabitation Agreement in place.

• The Agreement allows you and your partner to specify which assets each of you owned prior to the relationship, and which are jointly owned by both of you.
• You can also set out how your joint assets will be distributed if you decide to end the relationship.
• You can also agree upon how household expenses will be split, and who is responsible for other debts. For instance, if your partner owes money on a student loan incurred before you met, he/she may be solely responsible for paying it off.
• If the two of you decide to get married, the Cohabitation Agreement becomes a prenuptial (pre-marriage) agreement.
• Before signing this Agreement, you and your partner must each get independent legal advice from a lawyer. The form includes a Certificate of Independent Legal Advice for each party.
• Available in MS Word format, fully customizable.
• For use only in the Province of Nova Scotia, Canada.
