Re: lived togather 15 yrs never introduced as wife, had on bank accout
common law marriage status is dependent upon all of the facts. Basically, it requires 2 people living together as husband and wife and holding out to the public that they are married. Your facts indicate that your relationship may not be a common law marriage, but if your partner is persistent and obtains the services of an attorney, the facts may determine the outcome differently when all are considered. You should consult with an attorney if you wish to protect your assets.
