Vacca Family Law Group - New York Divorce Attorney

Welcome to the June 2024 edition of the Vacca Family Law Group newsletter.


In the spirit of Pride Month, we’re exploring an increasingly prevalent topic in the realm of family law: issues related to LGBTQ+ and other non-traditional marriages and divorces.


First, join us as we explore the emotional and practical challenges that arise when a spouse comes out as gay, bisexual, or is transitioning genders. In our featured article, we provide tips for navigating these unique situations and emphasize the vital role of effective communication.


You'll also find links to additional recent blog posts in which we cover other aspects of non-traditional marriage and divorce, as well as divorcing at the same time as your child is questioning their gender identity or sexual orientation.

My Spouse Came Out of the Closet – Now What?

Join us as we draw from our experience and insights from working with clients to explore how to navigate these complexities with empathy and respect in our latest blog post, including alternatives to divorce.
