| Label | Ex-long term couple: financial support? Q434 | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Question text | Imagine an unmarried couple who have lived together for 20 years and have three children. The woman had reduced her working to part-time when the first child was born but gave up work entirely after the second child was born in order to care for the family and home. The man has supported the family financially throughout and also owns the family home. The youngest child recently left home and the couple's relationship has now broken down. The woman has no income and poor job prospects. Should she have a claim for financial provision from her partner? | |||||||||||||||||||||
