LGBTQ Family Law:
Child Custody, Child Support, and Alimony
Creating a Safe Space for Everyone
At Hernandez Family Law, we recognize the complexities of family law matters for LGBTQ+ families. For example, when negotiating a fair division of property or additional financial support from your spouse, our attorneys consider LGBTQ+ parenting rights, allocation of property you acquired as a couple before you were legally permitted to marry, and the length of the partnership and contributions made together as a family before you were legally permitted to marry.
Led by Blake Holliday (they/them or he/him pronouns), a compassionate and experienced attorney in LGBTQ+ family law matters, our firm is dedicated to providing personalized support for families of all types, including clients who identify as gay, queer, lesbian, transgender, nonbinary, gender non-conforming, or who are parents of LGBTQ+ youth.
We pride ourselves on offering a safe space where everyone is respected and treated with care.
Child Custody for LGBTQ+ Families
Child custody can be one of the most emotional aspects of any separation, and LGBTQ+ families often encounter additional challenges. Whether you’re navigating issues related to biological parenthood, surrogacy, adoption, or the rights of non-biological parents, we are here to protect your relationship with your child, and your autonomy over family planning.
Blake brings extensive experience working with LGBTQ+ families, ensuring that your parental rights are safeguarded and your child’s well-being is prioritized. Our goal is to help you establish custody arrangements that serve the best interests of your child while supporting the unique dynamics of your rainbow family, including families with same-sex parents raising a child, or a gender-diverse family.
Child Support
In any family separation, child support is an essential component of ensuring that children continue to receive the care they need. LGBTQ+ families are no exception, and Blake and the Hernandez Family Law team provide guidance on fair and equitable child support arrangements. Whether you’re the custodial parent seeking support or the non-custodial parent working through obligations, we do our best to ensure your child’s needs are met in compliance with Arizona’s child support laws.
Alimony (Spousal Support)
For LGBTQ+ couples, alimony or spousal support can be a crucial element of the divorce process.
Whether it’s helping to ease the financial transition for one partner or negotiating terms that work for both parties, Blake and our team’s experience ensures that the process is handled with compassion and fairness. We are dedicated to ensuring that any spousal support arrangement reflects the realities of your financial situation and your family’s future needs.
A Compassionate and Inclusive Approach
At Hernandez Family Law, we believe that every family deserves respect and understanding. Opening up to a family law attorney calls for a lot of vulnerability and trust, particularly if you are in the LGBTQ+ community, or you are a parent of a transgender or gender non-conforming child. You deserve an attorney who can hold safe space for you and provide legal advice without minimizing or invalidating your feelings as you navigate a legal system that is not built for you.
Blake’s approach is rooted in care and empathy, ensuring that you feel heard and supported throughout the legal process. Our firm is committed to providing a safe and inclusive space for all LGBTQ+ clients and rainbow families by offering legal expertise that aligns with your values and protects your family’s future.
