Sumario:The following paper seeks to study Colombian constitutional jurisprudence and its repercussions in Family Law, mainly, aspects regarding de facto unions. For this, Act 54 of 1990 amendments are analyzed through sentences ordered by the Colombian Constitutional Court as of 1991, including the jurisprudence evolution on this matter, which is supported by due constitutional protection to families, as being the core of society. Document analysis methodology was used for this descriptive study; this helped to identify the rights this kind of union has acquired through jurisprudence means, and most importantly, to understand that same-sex couples are also included in this category. Apart from the results that were obtained, it is reasonable to conclude that a law reform is in order to regulate, through jurisprudence, acquired rights explicitly, especially for same-sex unions.
