Hodes, Ulman, Pessin & Katz, P.A.
There are more non-traditional households in this country today than ever before, including a high percentage of same sex couples. Because tax laws, probate laws and many other laws treat unmarried couples differently than they do married couples, and because gay marriages are not legally recognized in Maryland, there are particular problems faced by same-sex couples in their estate planning. There are also some advantages and opportunities made possible by not being legally married.

The experienced attorneys on our Same-Sex Law team are familiar with all aspects of planning for the non-traditional family, including estate and gift taxes, income taxes, adoption, partnerships and other agreements, government and employee benefits and long-term care.
