In New York State, same-sex couples are unable to enter into a civil marriage, though new changes in the law may afford recognition to their out-of-state marriages. The laws in other states are changing all the time. Notwithstanding the developments in state law, same-sex married couples still cannot take advantage of numerous federal benefits and protections enjoyed by married couples. These differences of legal status from state to state, and the differences between state and federal law, make estate planning very complex for same-sex couples. This program will explore strategies to optimize estate and tax planning for couples - both same-sex couples and unmarried heterosexual couples - whose relationships lack full legal recognition. Also discussed will be recent developments in the law on the recognition of same-sex relationships, with particular attention to Governor Paterson's executive order and its implementation.
