Fry & Elder Answers Questions About Tulsa Same Sex Divorce

Marriage is different now, and so is divorce.

When same sex marriage became legal in October of 2014 throughout the state of Oklahoma, and the U.S. Supreme Court further validated the decision by ruling to legalize same sex marriage nationwide in 2015, it allowed thousands of couples to celebrate their partnership and union in the most formal way possible.

But as the Tulsa family law firm of Fry & Elder is well aware of, not all marriages end as they begin.

Just like traditional marriage, same sex marriage can end in a same sex divorce.

As a prominent and leading Oklahoma family law firm, Fry & Elder has remained diligent and proactive in its approach to stay up to date with the evolving Tulsa same sex divorce and same sex marriage laws.
