Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

community property while being unmarried

My current live-in girlgriend and I are buying a home. Because of my credit history, my name will not show anywhere on the mortage but it will on some of the house hold bills. Will I have any legal rights to the house or is it completely hers?
