Florida Family Law For Same-Sex Couples

Couples in the LGBT community are faced with many unique challenges when family law issues arise. Those challenges often require creative legal solutions.

At the law firm of Anne E. Raduns, P.A., we have the knowledge and experience to create family law solutions that work for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender individuals in same-sex relationships. Whatever family law challenge you may be facing, you can be confident in our ability to resolve it.

Divorce And Family Law In The LGBT Community

Same-sex marriage became legal in Florida on January 6, 2015. This new legislature abolished the original law which banned same-sex marriage and was enacted in 1977. After a district court ruling declared that the state’s same-sex marriage ban was unconstitutional, actions were taken to legalize the recognition of same-sex unions.

The right of marriage brings a host of other rights associated with a legally recognized union, including divorce. Now, same-sex couples who are married in Florida, or were married in other states, can seek to dissolve the marriage in Florida.

Regardless of the circumstances surrounding your marriage, the decision to divorce is always a difficult one. We want to ensure that your rights are protected during this challenging time, and we offer the compassionate, effective representation you need to build the foundation for a brighter future. We would be honored to represent you and help you plan for life after divorce.
