OUR PRACTICE
ABOUT
LGBTQ LAW
Marriage and divorce laws have changed significantly over the past 30 years, especially the legal status of same-sex marriage. Many states passed their own laws allowing or banning the practice until the U.S. Supreme Court finally weighed in.
Gay marriage is now legal in all states. But the consequences continue to be felt by same-sex couples (and former couples) who have been living in de facto marriages with none of the legal benefits or protections.
Thankfully, there are legal remedies available, and our firm is ready to help you pursue them. Kenneth E. Keechl, PA, is a statewide leader in the enforcement of oral cohabitation agreements. If you were cohabitating in an unmarried relationship and have since parted ways, we can help you claim the share of joint assets that you are entitled to. We also assist clients with other asset and inheritance matters, including LGBTQ probate.
Furthermore, our firm also handles divorce actions for LGBTQ couples, prenuptial agreements, sexual abuse, assault and harassment litigation, general business litigation and real estate and condominium litigation.
