Cohabitation agreements in Illinois are treated as contracts, but their enforceability is limited. The agreement may be upheld for things like property division or asset agreements, but Illinois does not enforce financial support or palimony after a breakup.
A person who dies without leaving a valid will is called intestate. Under the Rules of Intestacy, if your partner dies without a will, and you are unmarried you will receive nothing.
Unmarried couples in Illinois do not have any built-in legal protections, regardless of how long the relationship has lasted.
How is the household property divided if an unmarried couple splits in Illinois? The Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act (Illinois divorce law) does not apply in these situations. Therefore, there is no joint property unless it is owned as such with evidence like a purchase agreement or bill of sale.
