How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Cohabitation Agreement in Pennsylvania

In 2023, a personal client in Pennsylvania posted a project seeking assistance with drafting a cohabitation agreement. The client and their fiancé, who had been cohabitating for four years, were looking to formalize their commitment and outline their financial responsibilities regarding the home, which was solely in the fiancé's name. They aimed to establish a legally binding agreement that would recognize the equity built through their contributions to the mortgage and address the appraised value of the property moving forward. As a result, the client received five proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $699 to $850, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of less than a week.
