Gay Family Law

lgbt-albuquerque-lawyerGay couples may be more vulnerable as they do not have the same protection under the laws of every State as traditional couples. Gay property law, gay adoption law, custody, wills and critical medical decisions are all more difficult for gay couples.

Gay and Lesbian Rights Lawyer

When you have questions about gay family law, it’s important to speak with a gay and lesbian rights lawyer who is familiar with specific laws pertaining to gay couples in New Mexico. Although gay marriage equality is a reality in New Mexico, it is not yet a reality across the United States.  A gay family law attorney helps couples prepare for any eventuality and can draft important legal documents like:

  • Contracts
  • Wills
  • Powers of attorney
  • Domestic partnership agreements
  • Pre- and post-nuptial agreements
  • Adoptions
  • Health care  directives
