GAY AND LESBIAN RETIREMENT

Estate and retirement planning for lesbian and gay people are different from heterosexuals because there are no Federal protections for LGBT couples. Sound advice is required when creating domestic partnerships, wills, health care proxies and housing contracts. Each state has different regulations regarding domestic partnerships, civil unions and same-sex marriage. Here is some of the best material to help members of the LGBT community navigate a path to successful retirement planning.
