Standing By You In Florida’s Shifting Legal Landscape On LGBTQ+ Issues
Florida’s stance on LGBTQ+ issues has been less than friendly. Our state was one of the last to recognize same-sex marriage in 2015 after a pivotal court ruling. I understand how difficult it can be to live authentically in a state that is actively hostile toward the LGBTQ+ community. I keep abreast of the latest shifts in Florida family law to ensure that I can offer you the most current and effective legal advice.
Although the divorce process for same-sex couples mirrors that of other marriages, you’ll face unique considerations and hurdles, especially if you’ve built your family through adoption or assisted reproduction. Disputes over parenting time and custody can raise complications, particularly if the nonbiological parent hasn’t officially adopted the child,
With my background in assisted reproductive technology (ART) law – which is a major focus of my practice – I have an in-depth understanding of these special situations.
