New York Non-Traditional Family Lawyer

Helping Non-Traditional Families with Their Legal Matters

On Long Island today, there are more non-traditional families than ever before. That is because traditional families are on the decline and due to the growing number of non-traditional families. This change is happening due to various reasons, including changes in the socio-economic conditions and more inclusive definitions of what constitutes a family. But the most important factor is the legalization of same-sex marriage, which has led to more adoptions of single-sex married couples. Thus boosting the non-traditional family structure.

In general, a non-traditional family includes blended families, stepparents, single and divorced parents, grandparents raising grandchildren, and LGBT couples. However, existing domestic relations, marriage, and family law simply have not kept up with the burgeoning needs of the growing number of non-traditional families. Due to this, a non-traditional family has to take affirmative steps to ensure legal recognition and protection of their families.

Issues Facing Non-Traditional Families

Ms. Spirio is an attorney with experience in non-traditional family law. She helps couples on Long Island understand the law and how it impacts those in non-traditional families. Most importantly, she guides her non-traditional family clients on how to legally protect themselves as best as possible to ensure the same rights afforded traditional families.

Here are a few examples of issues non-traditional families commonly face:

  • protection of children
  • the rights of the grand parents
  • holding property title
  • passing on of property after death
  • structuring home ownership
  • ensuring inheritance rights of the surviving partner if the legal owner passes away
