Have lived with my partner for over two years now in his house. What does the law say regarding splitting up? Do I have any rights? How fast do I have to move out?

There are obligations on unmarried parents to provide child support maintenance for the children of the relationship (if any), either through the Child Support Agency or by application to the Court under the Children Act.
Claims may be pursued in relation to property in circumstances in which property is jointly owned or, if the property is owned by one former cohabitant, if there has been an agreement that the other will have an interest in the property or the other cohabitant has contributed towards the acquisition of the property (called an equitable interest rather than a common law right). It is also possible to pursue claims for capital to meet the financial needs of children.
Other than that, unless you can show that you have made a reasonable contribution to the accommodation in which you live (other than bills), you have few rights other than reasonable notice (usually 28 days) if he asks you to leave.
If you think that you do have some rights then it will be necessary to seek an ex parte injuction (without notice) to protect your posiiton. After that it will be for the court to decide.

You do have some rights as you would have been contributing to the household however if the property is in his name it becomes more complex and not being married wont help. You should either contact a lawyer or the citizens advice for help. As for moving out unless things are awkward stay it will give you fore ammo to fight with. Good luck,

In law, you have no rights to any property unless it is yours. it is up to your partner when you have to move, he has to give you a date of moving but it must be a reasonable date to give you time to sort out your affairs. I know a couple who lived together for 32 years, yet the woman had no rights to the property or its contents except her own belongings. That is the difference that a marriage Certificate makes. If you were married, you would be entitled to half of everything.

Its 2 years interior the united kingdom. it rather is between the justifications why in the adventure that your substantial different is british and you're African you may get your flow away prolonged as quickly as you have been residing mutually,in case you have been residing mutually for 2 years or extra yet could have evidence of residing mutually. you should continually ask on the citizans advice breau and see what they say and its unfastened to get info from there. in case you're having concerns like this I dont think of you're arranged to have a splash one with this guy. only wait a quick time longer and see how issues flow. maybe communicate approximately marrage to him and see what he thinks. Dont rush into something which you at the instant are not waiting for. solid luck

Depends very much on how much you have contributed to the cost of running the household. If you have been paying rent then you have no rights but if you are paying an amount towards the mortgage then you have rights. Check with the Citizens Advice Bureau in your area.

You have the right of the half of the property you co-owned with your partner from the time you started living together.

It seems you have very few rights at all, if any, if he owns the property. He could ask you to move out when he likes. I hope he isn't heartless and throws you out.
