  • Product Details

    • If you’re an unmarried couple who has been together for sometime, you may want to abandon your Agreement to Keep Property Separate and instead treat purchases either party makes as jointly owned.

    Use this form to establish that all newly acquired property -- except that given to or inherited by one partner, or that which is clearly specified in writing as separate property -- is to be jointly owned by both, and equally divided if you separate.

    Important to Know

    • Notarization will add a measure of legal credibility, but isn't legally required.
    • Giving or receiving property for the purpose of evading creditors is illegal. An agreement to keep all property separate will protect you from your partner's creditors.
