Answer to Question #77253 in British Law for Robin Parker

Question

As noted above Gru has one daughter, Ezmerelda. A keen amateur mathematician, Ezmerelda is a banker.

They couple also owned a coastal cottage which was purchased in 2012. Despite Ezmerelda paying the whole £150,000 purchase price, the cottage was conveyed in to Julie’s sole name. Since the purchase of the cottage in 2012 Julie has redecorated the cottage throughout and has also landscaped the small courtyard at the rear of the cottage.

In 2018 Ezmerelda and Julie ended their relationship after a prolonged period of difficulty. It appeared that they had simply fallen out of love. It later transpired that Julie had been having an illicit affair with a neighbour.

Heartbroken and furious, Ezmerelda demands to know how she stands in relation to ownership of the properties mentioned above. Advise Ezmerelda as to the ownership interests in this “cohabitation” section.

Please advise the parties as to the beneficial ownership of their numerous properties.
