Help With Same-Sex Family Law Matters

Same-sex couples experience the same legal difficulties as heterosexual couples in a divorce, custody, support or adoption case. However, LGBT couples and individuals can face more complicated challenges when a court does not recognize their rights in a fair or clear manner.

It can help to have a family law attorney who understands the issues faced by LGBT people in Virginia. It is important for your lawyer to understand the law, but it is critical for your lawyer to understand you.
