Perhaps you’re not ready to take the plunge and get married or register as domestic partners; nevertheless, if you and your partner are living together, it is prudent to enter into a cohabitation agreement. At the Gay Family Law Center, we can create an LGBT cohabitation agreement that gives you the financial protection you desire and deserve.
In the absence of a cohabitation agreement, LGBT partners have no right to financial support (unless there has been a verbal agreement) and no community property-like rights should the relationship end in separation or death. A cohabitation agreement gives you the freedom to divide assets, property, and debt, as well as to make provisions for financial support. It can also include provisions for child custody and support, power of attorney, a healthcare advance directive, and even a will. Wending your way through the intricacies of a cohabitation agreement isn’t for the fainthearted, however. That’s why the Gay Family Law Center stands ready to assist you.
Just like families, family challenges come in all shapes and sizes. Some are universal, while others are specific to the LGBT experience. Some LGBT family law issues are straightforward and easily managed, while others are complicated and arduous. At the Gay Family Law Center, we understand that family law isn’t a one-size-fits-all proposition.
