Why Choose This Course
A Certificate Programme in Legal Rights for Unmarried Couples in Rental Properties addresses a critical gap in the UK's legal landscape. Cohabitation is increasingly common; the Office for National Statistics reported a 30% increase in cohabiting couples between 2011 and 2021. Yet, unlike married couples, unmarried partners lack automatic legal protection concerning property ownership and tenancy rights. This programme equips professionals and individuals with the knowledge to navigate complex legal situations, specifically addressing disputes over shared rental accommodation.
The need for such expertise is amplified by rising rental costs and the increased incidence of disputes. Consider the number of cohabiting couples facing eviction or property disputes; a recent study by Shelter England estimates a 15% increase in such cases involving unmarried couples over the last five years. This programme provides a comprehensive understanding of relevant legislation and case law, empowering learners to advocate for their clients effectively and proactively.
