The questions your team needs answered
Every same-sex family law intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Are you looking for help with a family matter involving a same-sex couple or LGBTQ+ parent(s) (such as marriage, divorce, parenting, or adoption)? | Confirms the matter genuinely falls within same-sex family law scope rather than a general family law request. |
| Is this matter happening in the United States (or will it be filed in a U.S. state court)? | Matters not filed in a U.S. state court typically sit outside the attorney's practice authority. |
| Are you personally involved (you are one of the spouses/partners/parents or a legal guardian) in the situation you want help with? | Confirms the submitter has standing as a party or guardian rather than inquiring on someone else's behalf. |
| Is there an active dispute or a legal step you need to take soon (for example, separation/divorce, custody/visitation, child support, adoption, or parentage rights)? | Signals whether the person needs to act soon versus is still exploring general options. |
| Are children involved, or could this case affect parental rights (custody, visitation, decision-making, or legal parent status)? | Flags cases touching custody, decision-making, or legal-parent status, which usually need faster review. |
| Do you and the other person disagree about any major issue (like parenting time, support, property, or whether someone is a legal parent)? | Distinguishes a contested matter needing negotiation or litigation from an uncontested filing. |
| Do you know the name and current location (city/state) of the other spouse/partner/parent involved? | Knowing the other party's name and location affects how quickly filing and service of process can proceed. |

Common same-sex family law lead scenarios
Contested custody after separation
Both parents disagree on parenting time and one is a legal parent by adoption, not biology. The intake flags active dispute plus children involved so this routes as urgent.
Uncontested second-parent adoption
A married couple wants to confirm both parents' legal status with no dispute pending. Low disagreement and no active-dispute signal mean this is qualified but not urgent.
Matter filed outside the U.S.
A couple separated abroad and wants advice, but the case won't be filed in a U.S. state court. The jurisdiction answer flags this as outside scope before any consultation is offered.
Third party asking on someone's behalf
A friend or relative fills out the form for someone else, not as guardian. The personal-involvement answer signals this needs redirection rather than a consultation slot.
Other parent's whereabouts unknown
A parentage dispute exists but the other party's location is unknown, complicating service of process. This combination signals urgency alongside a practical filing obstacle.

Same-Sex Family Law lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake handle someone filling out the form on another person's behalf?
The personal-involvement question identifies whether the submitter is a party or guardian versus a third party inquiring for someone else, so those leads can be handled separately from consultation-ready ones.
Does the intake catch matters that won't be filed in a U.S. court?
Yes. The jurisdiction question flags matters outside U.S. state court filing, which typically fall outside a firm's practice authority.
How does the form distinguish urgent cases from general inquiries?
The active-dispute question is the urgency signal, separating people who need to take a legal step soon from those still researching options.
Can the intake tell if custody or parental rights are involved?
Yes, the children/parental-rights question flags cases touching custody, decision-making, or legal-parent status, which firms usually want reviewed faster.
What happens if the other parent's location isn't known?
The intake captures whether the other spouse, partner, or parent's name and location are known, which affects how quickly a filing or service of process can move forward.
How does this intake differ from a general divorce or custody intake?
It opens by confirming the matter actually involves a same-sex couple or LGBTQ+ parent before applying the same dispute, custody, and jurisdiction questions used across family law intakes.
