What You Need to Know About Domestic Partnerships in California
In California, same sex couples may register a domestic partnership with the Secretary of State by submitting a Declaration of Domestic Partnership form with the notarized signatures of both parties, along with the appropriate fee. Registered domestic partners have similar rights and responsibilities of married couples, but it is helpful to discuss any particular questions or concerns you may have with qualified legal counsel. There may be particular provisions that will impact you and your partner that are not clearly outlined in the law and are better explained and addressed by a lawyer.

Even with the recent demise of Proposition 8 which has allowed same-sex marriages to resume in the state of California, there may be some very valid reasons to consider a Registered Partnership in addition to, or in lieu of, conventional marriage.
Benefits of Getting a Domestic Partnership
By getting a registered partnership, you and your loved one can enjoy new tax, medical, and financial benefits. These vast benefits are displayed in California Family Code 297.
