Belleville Non-Traditional Family Attorney
The law does not naturally protect the rights of same sex (gay and lesbian) and other unmarried couples, but it does allow you to secure those rights by including your wishes in your planning. By contacting a nontraditional family attorney today, you can make sure your rights are protected in the future. At the office of Richard W. Thompson, we help unmarried couples protect their rights.
Challenges Facing Unmarried Couples
Married couples enjoy a host of protections under the law that unmarried couples do not. If you fail to take the proper steps ahead of time, you may find yourself with no rights under the eyes of the law. By contacting a nontraditional family law attorney you can secure some of the following rights:
- Hospital visitation
- End of life decisions
- Determination of your partner's remains
- Organ donation
- Distribution of your assets to your partner
- Adoption
Solutions for Unmarried Couples
If you are involved in a same-sex relationship, you do have options. There are multiple ways that a nontraditional family attorney can secure the rights of you, your partner, and your family:
- Wills
- Trusts
- Healthcare powers of attorney
- Property powers of attorney
Understanding Your Rights
You deserve to have your rights protected. However, until you see a lawyer who can work with you to develop a plan, the law is unable to provide you with the same rights that traditional families enjoy. From adoption and visitation rights to estate planning and powers of attorney, we can help you protect your rights today.
