This review is from: Legal Essentials for California Couples: Why Every Couple Should Have a Written Agreement that Will Enhance (and Possibly Save) Your Relationship (Legal Essetials for California Couples) (Paperback)

This new (Feb. 2005) edition of this book is highly useful for couples who plan on living together but not getting formally married. The design is attractive, useful features (such as a checklist) are included, and religious covenants are included as is domestic partner registration bankruptcy, children, and many other topics that couples need to consider. Highly recommended!
