A one-size-fits-all estate plan is just like one-size-fits-all clothing—it may look like it covers most of the critical parts, but it doesn’t fit anybody well. And for those who have concerns that may be out of the mainstream, like LGBTQ families, that one-size-fits-all plan can leave critical gaps that let your family down at the worst possible time. At Velasco Law Group, we understand the unique challenges faced by same-sex couples, whether they are legally married or not, and their children in ensuring their estate is passed on as they wish. We stay current with the latest legal changes to ensure that your estate plan provides the protection you intend for those you hold most dear.
