💗Marriage v ‘Life Partnership’💗

When unmarried couples live together for a long time as life partners, some believe that their relationship has equal status to that of a civil/legal marriage-giving each spouse the same rights and obligations afforded to a civil/legal marriage. This is a big mistake! The South African law does not afford automatic rights to partners in such relationships.

This type of relationship is commonly referred to as ‘Cohabitation’ or a ‘Life Partnership’. There are no ‘Common Law Marriages’ in South Africa and no legal recognition exits for a life partnership under any legislation.

If a Life Partner dies intestate (without a will), the surviving partner does not enjoy an automatic right of inheritance. To be able to inherit anything from the deceased life partner’s estate, each partner must have a valid will in place in which the remaining partner is specifically mentioned as a beneficiary.

When not legally married and living together, make sure to enter into a ‘Life Partnership Agreement’ with regards to the relationship.
