    Hi, my partner has asked me to leave our family home which we share with our child, of whom i am joint guardian. (unmarried)we have a verbal, general agreement on access but i know thats not worth anything.
    i know she needs me around and will not prevent access unless it gets very messy
    but should i stand firm and not move out until access is sorted. in which case it could take months (summer recess im told?) and a rather hellish existence. i have also been told that i would have some rights as a cohabiting partner.is this correct?
    any guidance would be appreciated...

    Hi there, you can go to your local citizen advice centre for more info or ring treoir on 1890 252 084 for more info. you do have cohabiting rights but I think you have to have lived with her for 3 years or so after the arrival of your child.

    you could suggest counselling like ACCORD to your partner. They work on a donation basis. They do couple counselling and have helped me in the past. you never know once you sit down with an independent professional you might be able to sort our your differences. i hope your child is ok.
