Divorce OUTSIDE The Court System For The LGBTQ Community

Posted On: July 07, 2020


Just because it's July doesn't mean we have to stop celebrating June Pride month!

Going through a divorce outside the Court system is critical for the LGBTQ community not only for confidentiality reasons, but also for comprehensive consideration of the relationship, which the Courts are limited to accomplish.  The Long Island Collaborative Divorce Professionals are proud supporters of the LGBTQ community, and I am a proud member!  We are dedicated to helping all couples but are also highly experienced in helping LGBTQ families.  Anyone seeking more information about how we can help families in conflict, during divorce or separation, please reach out.

In Landmark Case, Supreme Court Rules LGBTQ Workers Are Protected From Job Discrimination

Posted On: June 23, 2020

The Supreme Court ruled last week that existing federal law forbids job discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or transgender status, a major victory for advocates of gay rights and for the nascent transgender rights movement — and a surprising one from an increasingly conservative court.

By a vote of 6-3, the court said Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which makes it illegal for employers to discriminate because of a person's sex, among other factors, also covers sexual orientation and transgender status. It upheld rulings from lower courts that said sexual orientation discrimination was a form of sex discrimination.

Concetta G. Spirio Pens Article On Why Mediation And The Collaborative Process Just Makes Sense For LGBTQIA+ Couples

Posted On: June 18, 2020

June is Pride Month for the LGBTQIA+ Community - a time to celebrate how far the community has come and a time to reflect on how we can continue to keep enacting positive change. Marriage equality became the law of the land in June 2015 - and with marriage comes the possibility of divorce.

I have advocated for LGBTQIA+ rights since I was an undergraduate in college, and as an attorney, I believe strongly in the rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered individuals.

My colleagues at Long Island Collaborative Divorce Professionals have graciously been promoting my article explaining why mediation and the collaborative process just makes sense for LGBTQIA+ couples.
