Newfoundland Cohabitation Agreement

Common law couples do not have the same rights as married couples under Newfoundland law. To make sure your rights are protected, you need to sign a Cohabitation Agreement.

  • A cohabitation agreement is permitted under the Family Law Act. It gives you and your partner the opportunity to set out in writing what your rights and obligations to each other are.
  • You can decide what happens to assets that the two of you purchase jointly, if the relationship comes to an end.
  • The agreement sets out what each partner's responsibilities will be with respect to raising and caring for the children, and paying the household debts.
  • Since common law spouses do not have matrimonial property rights under provincial law, this agreement covers that as well.
  • Both partners must get independent legal advice from a lawyer before signing the agreement. The form includes a Certificate of Independent Legal Advice that the lawyer must complete.
  • Available in MS Word format.
  • For use only in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Ontario Cohabitation Agreement

Cohabiting couples in Ontario can establish their rights and obligations and the ownership of their separate and joint property in a Cohabitation Agreement.

  • 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.
  • You will both need to get independent legal advice from a lawyer before you sign the Agreement. A Certificate of Independent Legal Advice is included for each of you, which the lawyer will sign after seeing you.
  • Ontario law treats married and cohabiting couples differently with respect to property rights. Make sure yours are protected.
  • Available in MS Word format, fully customizable.
