gay marriage iconThe Washington State Court recognizes the legal rights of those involved in same-sex relationships, whether these couples are seeking the disillusionment of a domestic partnership or are filing for a "traditional" divorce.

Washington divorce laws are complicated, even in cases involving domestic partnerships. Our Bellevue same-sex divorce lawyers are not only experienced with the older laws that govern same-sex marriage, but also the newer laws.

Division of assets and property often necessitates difficult choices for both parties during a Bellevue divorce.

If you need help understanding how the law applies to your situation, our Bellevue gay divorce lawyers are ready to help. When dealing with a divorce, making informed decisions about your future makes good sense.

If you were in an unmarried same-sex relationship, the Washington court will want to ascertain various details about your life. Our Bellevue same-sex divorce attorneys can prepare you for these questions, so that you know what to expect when the time comes. These questions often focus on issues involving property, whether you were in a registered domestic partnership, the date when your relationship began, and if you were referred to as “partners” by people in your social circle. This information will be used to determine whether your case can be heard in the Washington Family Court.

Even if the court refuses to hear your case, you still have legal rights concerning your Bellevue assets. Our Bellevue gay divorce attorneys will provide you with reliable counsel so that you can get more specific answers about your particular situation.

"I can't say enough great things about Jason Newcombe Law Office. I am retired military and I highly recommend Jason Newcombe Law Office. I reached out to Jason's office after sitting for hours reviewing multiple Domestic Violence Law Offices in King County. He responded before that day was over. I spoke with Jason's both in-person and by phone; felt very comfortable with his years of experience and straight talk. He took on my case, took me through the process with sound advice. The Attorney Erin Lane who accompanied me with my court appearances; can't praise and thank her enough for her time, selflessness and educational information prior to each court appearance. She made a really daunting task for me less fearful, given such grim circumstances. I am forever grateful for Jason and the Team of Attorneys." Tommy Harville
