Domestic Partnerships
In some states and cities, same-sex marriage is unavailable, but couples are able to enter into domestic partnerships. The laws regarding what this means vary depending on where the partnership is registered. There are some couples still in a Massachusetts domestic partnership who have chosen not to marry. These couples can use the services of a family mediator to help them come to decisions as to the terms for their relationship. This can be memorialized in a domestic partnership agreement.
