We Are Committed To Guiding Same-Sex Families Through Tough Family Matters
proudly represents same-sex couples in decisions related to marriage and family law, including:
- Pre and postnuptial agreements
- Uncontested or contested divorce issues
- Child custody and visitation arrangements
- Alimony agreements and child support payments
- Marital property and asset division matters
- Accusations of domestic violence during the marriage
The hard-fought right to marry brings with it many potential questions for same-sex couples who have already been sharing their lives together, whether for a short time or for several years. Additionally, the current refusal of many state laws and federal law to recognize the legality of same-sex marriage causes the potential for denial of associated benefits such as the right to make medical decisions and inherit property. For some couples, it may be important to retain additional legal protection to guard against such difficulties.
Regardless of the length of your relationship or the nature of your concerns, our experienced Federal Way divorce and family law attorneys are here to offer guidance and support.
