LGBTI Community, Society & Culture

Modern Families and The Law is a four part radio series that explores some of the legal difficulties and complexities faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people when interacting with the laws of the land.

Marriage Equality remains elusive in Australia so what actually constitutes a ‘relationship’ as far as the law is concerned.

What rights do you have in a relationship?  Can you have more than one de-facto?

What does the law think of “friends-with-benefits”?  How is it defined?

Nicholes Family Lawyers Senior Associate Bec Dahl joins Dean Beck to discuss the in’s and outs of relationships, what to do if they go sour and much more.
