Gay and Lesbian Divorce Attorney

Concetta G. Spirio has advocated for LGBTQ rights since she was an undergraduate in college. As a gay and lesbian divorce attorney, Ms. Spirio believes strongly in the rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered individuals. In many instances, mainstream society has denied basic rights to the LGBTQ community that has been afforded to others.

Notwithstanding that marriage is now legal nationally for lesbian and gay couples, there are special issues that come up for lesbian or gay couples who choose to get divorced.  Many issues arise that are unique to a lesbian and gay relationship, especially if the relationship is longstanding and predates the ability to legally marry.  This is a prime reason why lesbian and gay couples would benefit from Mediation or Collaborative Divorce rather than a traditional litigated divorce.  Simply put, the Courts just don’t know how or care to deal with the different circumstances involving lesbian and gay couples.
