Cohabitation And Property Rights

Summary

In Alabama, cohabitation does not automatically grant property rights. If your name is not on the lease or deed, your partner can ask you to leave, but cannot forcibly remove you without legal proceedings. Common law marriages established before January 1, 2017, may still be recognized and could impact property rights. You may need to provide evidence of the relationship, such as joint bank accounts or affidavits. Consulting an attorney for personalized advice is recommended.
