Manhattan Same Sex Divorce Lawyer

Attorney Helping with Gay and Lesbian Divorce Proceedings

On June 17, 2011, legislators in the state of New York voted on a law that would make the state the sixth throughout the country to legalize gay marriage. The bill was approved in a 33 to 29 vote and made New York the largest state so far to pass a law that approved the legality of same sex marriage. This, however, does not just mean the same sex couples can get married - it also means that they can get divorced.

Legally speaking, the divorce of a gay and lesbian couple is the same as it would be for heterosexual couples. There are, however, nuances that should not be glossed over. The process is emotionally different and it should be treated as such. At the Kepanis Law Firm, they recognize how difficult it can be to deal with divorce, regardless of the circumstances, and are prepared to provide their clients with the sophisticated and professional representation that is needed to move forward as painlessly and effectively as possible.
