“Non-Traditional” Families

Right now people are creating their own definition of “family.” The number of households of singles, single parents, married and unmarried heterosexual and GLBT couples and divorced and widowed individuals continues to grow. This growth has outpaced the legal system set up for “traditional families” of a wife and husband with children. Let us use our expertise and experience to address your needs. Don’t let politics and outdated laws keep you from protecting your loved ones.
