The story below broke my heart.  I’m saddened by the passage of Amendment One in North Carolina.  We should be seeking to protect all family units in our state, not further restrict the rights of some of our citizens.

No one should have to go through what this man went through when his partner passed away.  Unfortunately, since the law does not offer the same protections to unmarried couples, this is the reality for those couples who haven’t prepared a basic estate plan.

As our small way of helping, Wiggen Law Group is offering free estate planning for same-sex couples who call in the month of May.  We only ask that participants make a donation in the amount of their choosing to Equality NC or other similar organization.
