San Diego divorce lawyers, Michele Lowenstein and Elizabeth Brown, discuss the similarities and differences between a dissolution of a domestic partnership and a divorce in California. They address the emotional issues experienced by both parties and the tax-related difficulties that the dissolution of partnership encounters due to the fact the federal government does not recognize nor treat a registered domestic partnership as a marriage/divorce, as well the possibility of filing of Marvin Actions by either party during dissolution.
