Understanding the Evolution of LGBT Rights
The legal history of LGBT rights throughout California and the nation has been ever changing for a number of years. It is a complex area of law and can impact your rights during a divorce or legal separation.
As of today, same-sex couples have the ability to not only register as domestic partners, but they may also marry, divorce, adopt, face issues with filing taxes, and terminate their domestic partnership. To handle these legal issues – especially with the ever-changing laws recently – you will need an experienced family law attorney who is familiar with the history and can ensure that your rights are protected.
Comprehensive Legal Support for LGBT Family Matters
Families in today’s society can be made up of many different facets. This is even more true for the LGBT community.
Now that same-sex couples have the right to marry and divorce, they are also faced with related issues including:
- Custody
- Visitation
- Alimony
- Child support
LGBT families can be formed in many different ways. If you are thinking of ending your marriage, terminating your domestic partnership, legally separating, filing to establish parentage of a child, or seeking custody of a child, you will need the guidance of an experienced and knowledgeable LGBT mediator or attorney from the Law Office of Tiffany L. Andrews, P.C.
Having an attorney who is knowledgeable in these areas will ensure you are not only treated with respect but assisted through this tough time in your life. Our Folsom LGBT family lawyers are dedicated to serving you and your family with care and compassion.

“I feel blessed to have Ms. Andrews on my side, and I highly recommend her services!”
- CarlosAfter the initial shock of being served divorce papers, I began interviewing attorneys to help me with the legal proceedings. The first couple of attorneys focused on how to address the support and division of property issues included in the papers I was served, without really asking me about my interests in this matter.
After meeting with Ms. Andrews, and ever since that initial interview and consultation, I always felt she had my best interests in mind. She immediately explained what I needed to file and when what to expect going forward and then asked me about my interests. Wow! She was exactly the kind of attorney I was looking for to represent me.
She was always responsive to my questions and requests, no matter how basic, and got back to me in a timely manner… at times outside normal work hours. But, the biggest and most pleasant surprise to me was when she began educating and guiding me through every step in order to achieve my interests and goals -– mainly, my number one priority and “my everything” in this whole process: to retain shared custody and visitation rights with my children. Her guidance and recommendations put me at ease and really helped put my children first.
Her knowledge, honesty, and dedication through numerous and unexpected court hearings involving custody and visitation issues not only resulted in the resolution of such issues in a competent and efficient manner but a resolution that Ms. Andrews knew I wanted.
Not only is Ms. Andrews reliable, helpful and an overall amazing attorney, her office staff is also very courteous, professional and efficient in keeping me apprised of what was needed and the status of the case. Thank you so much, Ms. Andrews… and staff!!

“I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
It is true that divorce is the most trying time anyone will ever experience. Having said that, Tiffany has been an ally in the onslaught of negativity. My case has been VERY complicated and has involved domestic violence. She has worked to affect a positive outcome for me and my son. While this case is not over, and the outcome is still uncertain, I am certain that I am in the best hands possible with her as my attorney. I would highly recommend her to anyone!- Previous Client -
“Amazing Experience!”
Tiffany helped me through a very difficult custody battle, and she was very helpful and informative. She answered all of my questions and made me feel very comfortable. Tiffany truly knows what she is talking about... I would highly recommend her to anyone trying to get through a difficult custody battle, or anything else!- Previous Client -
“Hard Working”
Ms. Andrews did a lot of research on issues she was not clear so that she would be able to provide accurate information and advice. She worked diligently on my case, while my ex's attorney was playing "legal games" - by sending letters with false claims to rack up his fees - while pretending to work on the case. Unfortunately my divorce was very complicated; however, in the end, Ms. Andrews managed to win over my ex - so he fired his attorney and we had Mr. Andrews finish the final paperwork for the both of us. In the end, Ms. Andrews saved both me and my ex, additional grief, frustration and money.- Previous Client -
“Would Recommend to Anyone”
I cannot say enough good things about Tiffany Andrews. I had a previous attorney who completely messed up my case and the work Tiffany was able to do was amazing. She is efficient, honest, understanding, and incredibly intelligent. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a smart, educated, kind attorney who genuinely cares and can get results that you want. Truly impressed and grateful I found her!- Nicole -
“Divorce & Separation Advice Session”
She was great, put my mind at ease. I had a few short questions, not enough to warrant a face-to-face with a lawyer at a high price and she took care of them. Precise, knowledgable and friendly too.- Previous Client -
“Excellent Process and Assistance”
I'd like to thank Tiffany for her advice. I've been divorced for over a year and am still trying to collect on the settlement agreement. I had a question about the legal interest and if it's collectible and she said definitely! as long as the judgment doesn't preclude it. She was extremely helpful - also offering other remedies to assist in the collection of the funds. I would definitely call her again if I need more help.- Previous Client -
“Professional and Effective”
I retained Tiffany Andrews to accomplish my divorce and am pleased with the service provided. My ex-wife was very uncooperative at times and prolonged the divorce unnecessarily. Tiffany was able to move things along and eventually get her to complete her part of the necessary paperwork. Further, I am in the military and was deployed while the process was ongoing. Even though I was half a world away Tiffany and her staff were able to keep me abreast of the situation and worked with me to sign paperwork and keep things rolling. I would highly recommend Tiffany Andrews to those in need of legal services.- Previous Client
