Adding partner who is first time buyer with life time isa and releasing equity

Hi i will try explain this issue as clear as possible.
I have a partner who we have been living together for a while now in my home. I currently own the home we live in which currently has around 60K in equity. I want to add my new partner to the mortgage as we want be more serious and looking to try have our first child soon. My partner she currently have €10k in her life time isa which includes the bonus given from the government. So i understand by adding her to the mortgage without and underline legal agreement the equity will be split. However, i want to remortgage to release some equity as this way i can complete renovations on the house which are going be expensive and pay some loans so we can progress having a solid foundation for trying for a baby. Is it possible for my partner to use her life time isa by adding her to the mortgage while also i can release some equity to make it a much fairer ownership of the house? 
Also who should i look to seek advice from on this matter from a professional point? such as mortgage advisor or financial advisor?
