Living with other people can be complicated - whether they are family members, your husband, wife or civil partner, an opposite sex or same-sex partner. Your rights will vary depending on the legal status of your relationship and whether you own or rent your home.
This area of law is very complex, so you may need face-to-face advice about your individual circumstances. For information about ending a marriage, including divorce proceedings and provisions for children, visit the Advice Guide website.
Your rights may be different if you have recently come to the UK. The housing rights information website provides more information about this.
