LGBT Families...

With the state of the law regarding same-sex couples constantly changing,
it can feel intimidating for LGBT individuals and couples who are starting
or growing their families. Please know that there are many legal options
available to protect your rights and your family, even in conservative
states such as Virginia.
Elizabeth Vaughan is a Cooperating Attorney with the Lambda Legal Defense
and Educational Fund and a member of the National LGBT Bar Association.
She has experience helping LGBT individuals and families protect their
rights using tools like joint-custody orders and parenting agreements.
She also encourages families to think broadly about their family planning,
including planning their wills, powers of attorney, medical directives,
and family trusts. Elizabeth also stays up-to-date on the most recent
developments in the law that affect same-sex couples in Virginia, the
District of Columbia, and nationwide.
Whether you are considering adoption, surrogacy, artificial insemination,
or some other plan to grow your family, contact us.
