A Legal Guide for Lesbian and Gay Couples by Denis Clifford; Frederick Hertz

Use the practical and legal information in this book to define and protect your relationship in the eyes of the law. Even though the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in 2015, many questions remain for those same-sex couples who are unmarried and/or are in a civil union or domestic partnership. And parenting rights for same-sex couples still vary depending on the couple's relationship status and state laws. You'll learn about these important subjects and many more, including:

domestic partner benefits
ways to establish parentage, including second parent adoption, stepparent adoption, and contractual agreements
buying property together, and
providing for each other upon death.
