Need help on cohabitation law(not married just living as partners) in Georgia

[Zigner]

I read about this. I guess ‘ common law’ is applicable to people who have cohabited for more than 10 years or so. I guess, not sure If i am right. But anyways its not applicable in georgia. Thanks

As I said above, Georgia doesn't "do" common-law marriages. They will recognize common-law marriages that were formed in other states, but there is no such thing as a common-law marriage formed in Georgia.

Thanks. Is there state/county site where such laws are mentioned, I mean authentic link. Because there is lot out there on google

As I also said above, yours is a matter of contract law, plain and simple.

The problem is that most law in a situation like this isn't statutory it comes from case law.

Thanks. Ao friendly tenant is not referred to a person you are in live- in relationahip right?

NO such limit is expressed or required .

I don't know what passes for what in GA ..but you can get on very slippery slope as to enforceability
of a contract over something that is improper by local or state law. .

But a LT written lease stands as written especially if it looks like, smells like, and parties perform just like it says...and pay as required etc THere are other ways to do it , none perfect , ....but I agree its smarter to discuss things with counsel ahead of time .

I don't keep a statistical count ..but my guess is a good percent of live together deals break apart.
