New Jersey Same-Sex Marriage Lawyers Providing Family Law Representation for LGBTQ Families

In October 2013, same-sex marriage was legalized in the state of New Jersey. In 2015, the Supreme Court made same-sex marriage legal in all states. As a result, same-sex partners can now enjoy all state and federal rights, benefits, and responsibilities that opposite-sex marriages enjoy. Before they could legally marry, same-sex couples were only allowed to enter domestic partnerships or civil unions with limited rights and benefits. Under the new laws, same-sex partners may now need the same legal representation as other married partners for actions like prenuptial agreements, divorce, child support, child custody, alimony, and more.

If you are in a same-sex relationship or marriage and need legal help with any aspect of family law, we urge you to consult with a Morris County same-sex marriage attorney at Edens Law Group.
