Domestic Partner Matters

Thankfully, Florida has joined many other states in allowing same-sex marriages - but with the present political climate we do not know what the future may hold.  While the present state of the law as to same-sex marriages may resolve some of the issues faced by same-sex couples, it is important for wed same-sex couples not to forget that proper estate planning is still key to ensure estates pass as the spouses intend, and to help avoid the need for probate and guardianship, if at all possible. 

There may be personal circumstances that make marriage not an option for certain couples.  In those instances especially, properly drafted estate documents are the only way to protect a domestic partner.  

Whatever your personal situation, Ms. Alfonso is happy to answer your questions and tailor a plan to suit your particular circumstances.  Suzette M. Alfonso is a past Vice-President of the Tampa Bay Business Guild (www.tbbg.org), a co-founder of the Women's Professional Resource Network, was listed in the Watermark as one of the "100 Most Influential People in the Tampa Bay, Sarasota and Orlando areas in 2004", and was voted The Gazette's "1999 Suncoast Select Winner" for providing excellence in service in the category of Attorney.
