"Take the proper legal steps to define and protect your relationship in the eyes of the law using the practical and legal information in this book. Even though the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in 2015, many questions remain for those same-sex couples who choose to remain unmarried and/or are registered in a civil union or domestic partnership. And parenting rights for same-sex couples still vary depending on the couple's relationship status and state laws. You'll learn about these important subjects and many more, including: domestic partner benefits; establishing parental rights, including through a second parent adoption, a stepparent adoption, a court judgement of parentage, and/or a contractual agreement; buying property together; and providing for each other upon death." - publisher description

"No matter whether you're planning to pass on a cottage to your children, or you've inherited a cabin with your siblings, it's never too early to take steps to preserve a beloved family property for generations to come.

"Take the proper legal steps to define and protect your relationship in the eyes of the law using the practical and legal information in this book. Even though the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in 2015, many questions remain for those same-sex couples who choose to remain unmarried and/or are registered in a civil union or domestic partnership. And parenting rights for same-sex couples still vary depending on the couple's relationship status and state laws. You'll learn about these important subjects and many more, including: domestic partner benefits; establishing parental rights, including through a second parent adoption, a stepparent adoption, a court judgement of parentage, and/or a contractual agreement; buying property together; and providing for each other upon death." - publisher description

"No matter whether you're planning to pass on a cottage to your children, or you've inherited a cabin with your siblings, it's never too early to take steps to preserve a beloved family property for generations to come. Shared ownership of vacation property-especially when the co-owners are family members-can be fraught with problems. The idyllic dream of a cottage getaway can be shattered when co-owners' emotions, financial concerns, and opinions on how the property should be used come into play. Fortunately, a solid plan that dictates how the property will be owned and managed can prevent squabbles over the family cottage. Saving the Family Cottage lays out a roadmap for creating and implementing this plan. It also explains the possible pitfalls of co-owing a family vacation property, and provides time-tested guidance on how to: keep the peace among heirs; prevent a family member from forcing a sale of the property; keep your vacation home out of the hands of in-laws and creditors, a…

"This book is intended to provide a broad overview of Social Security law and practice. It covers the two main titles of the Social Security Act: Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance (OASDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI), with a special focus on the disability provisions of both programs. It begins with an introductory chapter that places current Social Security law and practice in its historical context, including a brief discussion of the circumstances surrounding the passage of the Act in 1935, the major amendments to the Act since 1935, and key Supreme Court decisions that have impacted the coverage and administration of OASDI and SSI.

"The sixth edition of this book updates laws affecting intestate succession, wills, guardianships, and trusts. It introduces wills and trust terminology to the lay audience and summarizes the law included in the Uniform Probate Code, Uniform Trust Code, Uniform Principal and Income Act, Uniform Guardianship and Protective Proceedings Act, Uniform Prudent Investor Act, and the Restatement of Trusts. To illustrate legal issues this book utilizes problems arising from celebrity peccadilloes and well-known deaths, such as those of Abraham Lincoln, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Prince, and the mother/daughter team of Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher. The book can be adopted to supplement a traditional wills and trusts class or as the sole text for a seminar. With clarified language, the book is also accessible to the general public interested in learning more about this complex topic." -publisher's description
