Description
Laws designed to protect married heterosexual couples don't apply to lesbian and gay couples - you need to take specific legal steps to define and protect your relationships in the eyes of the law. This practical, plain-English guide shows lesbian and gay couples how to: make practical decisions about living together; obtain domestic partner benefits; make medical decisions for each other in times of illness or incapacity; take care of a partner's finances in times of absence or incapacity; leave property to each other; understand the practical and legal aspects of having and raising children through adoption, donor insemination, surrogacy or foster parenting.
