Planning for Non-Traditional Couples

Gay and lesbian couples, as well as unmarried heterosexual couples, face unique challenges in protecting jointly owned property or in dividing assets in case the relationship ends. If you have not put your wishes in a legal document, you risk losing the right to choose who you want to make vital decisions about your health care and finances. Your partner will have no right to inherit your property, raise your children (unless you are both the biological parents), and may not even have the right to visit you in the hospital.
