How to use «Common-law» in context?
A «common law» relationship is one in which the couple does not have a formal written contract, but rather relies on the informal understanding that developed between them over time. This type of relationship is common in couples where neither of the partners have access to a lawyer, and where the parties are comfortable interacting with one another without the presence of a third party. As such, common-law relationships are often less formal and more flexible than marriages or civil partnerships, and are less likely to be registered with government agencies.
