Talk to a Lawyer About Your Domestic Partnership
The state of New Jersey recognizes domestic partnerships and civil unions, as well as out-of-state marriages for same-sex couples. In New Jersey, gay and lesbian couples involved in civil unions have substantially the same rights and benefits of same sex married couples.
But these legal rights sometimes give rise to complex legal issues. At the Law Offices of Daniel K. Newman, we are well prepared to handle them. Our Voorhees, New Jersey, law office represents GLBT couples throughout South Jersey in a wide range of legal issues that affect them, including:
- Registration of domestic partnerships
- Dissolution of domestic partnerships
- Child custody issues for same sex couples
The New Jersey legislature implemented the New Jersey Domestic Partnership Act (DPA) in 2004. The act recognizes same-sex couples age 18 or older and opposite-sex couples age 62 or older as domestic partners if they register and meet certain requirements. A lawyer can provide answers about whether or not you and your loved one can register.
Our law firm focuses on creating solutions for clients. We do this by providing straightforward legal advice. With confidence gained from more than 30 years of experience in the practice of law, we talk candidly with clients to help guide them through the legal process.
