Your Big Gay Divorce

Find Me The Money

Tyler Summers, a Boston family lawyer, discusses with Tracy the unique issues faced by gay men and women in divorce. Marriage equality has allowed homosexual couples to access the same divorce process as heterosexual couples, but the laws were originally designed for heterosexual couples and may not adequately address issues found in gay divorce.

We touch on issues surrounding non-biological parents, child support and spousal support in same-sex relationships, and benefits of pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements. And we conclude with Tyler’s take on the loss of one’s “chosen family” when gay couples are divorcing.
