Legal Essentials for California Couples : Why Every Couple Should Have a Written Agreement that Will Enhance (and Possibly Save) Your Relationship

California Relationship Law offers strategies and advice to couples getting into or out of marriage, domestic partnerships, and living-together arrangements. Building on its predecessor, California Marriage Law, with new material to reflect the domestic partnership law AB 205 that goes into effect January 1, 2005, the book shows readers how to gain greater control over their income, debts, property rights, support obligations, childcare and parenting arrangements, adoption, inheritance, medical permissions, care upon disability, and wishes after death, and comes with a CDROM of legal agreements and other helpful resources.
