520 Gay and lesbian couples have gained a lot of legal ground
in recent years. Although same-sex marriage is legal, it's
important to stay up to speed on the laws governing
parentage, adoption, civil unions, and domestic
partnerships, which vary from state to state. And if you
choose to remain unmarried, it's essential that you
protect your rights and define your relationship in the
eyes of the law. This plain-English guide shows you how
to do it.
