Civil Partnerships

Civil partnerships give same-sex couples the same legal rights as heterosexual marriages through a formal recognition of their relationship.

If you are looking for civil partnership legal advice, we have extensive experience in working with gay and lesbian couples, providing advice on relationships and parenting, challenging discrimination in employment and across a range of legal issues including civil partnerships.

If you choose to live together rather than enter into a civil partnership, you will be treated legally in the same way as a heterosexual cohabiting couple.
