The rights of cohabitants in Scotland are largely enshrined in the provisions of the Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006. Since the 2006 Act came into force, practitioners have done their best to navigate clients through this highly discretionary and challenging area of Scots Law. This book is a useful tool in bringing together the key case law which has developed over the course of the last fourteen years into one accessible and user friendly title: a handy reference guide for those involved in advising clients on a daily basis, for the preparation of legal submissions, for students or simply for those with an interest in this unique and evolving territory.ABOUT THE AUTHORSusie Mountain is a Scottish Family Lawyer based in Aberdeen.
