Steven E. Springer Nov. 18, 2013

Q: WHAT ARE THE LEGAL EFFECTS OF MARRIAGE?

A: There are many federal and state laws that benefit married couples. Some examples include the right to file joint income tax returns, create a family limited partnership (FLP) under federal tax laws, create a marital life estate trust, receive survivor benefits, receive a share of your deceased spouse’s estate under intestate succession laws and claim the estate tax marital deduction.
