Let Us Help You Complete Your Adoption
The most frustrating part of any adoption are always the obstacles the law places in the way of would-be parents. These hurdles must be surmounted whether or not you have an attorney and for many, the headaches, time and money spent to surmount them is too much.
Our attorneys can relieve you of this burden. We handle the adoption process from step one until completion. We prepare you for all interviews, complete and file the mountains of paperwork required, handle any court appearances or legal issues, and deal with any of the multitude of problems that inevitably come up along the way.
Types of Adoptions
There are many types of adoptions running the gamut from step-parent, inter-country adoptions to independent and adult adoptions. Frequently, the type of adoption chosen requires its own process and has its own legal ramifications. For example, if you are a step-parent seeking to adopt a step-child, the county probation and welfare departments of the county you and the child reside in may be the agencies responsible for this adoption. If you are attempting to adopt a child from overseas, the Federal Immigration and Naturalization Service would be the primary agency handling this adoption. An experienced attorney can outline for you exactly what type of adoption you require and help you avoid the common pitfalls associated with adoptions.
What We Do For You
Most law firms do not even handle adoptions for the simple fact that they are complex and involved. Many attorneys complain that they require too much time and they are unable to unwilling to invest that time. Do not trust your adoption to an attorney that is not one hundred percent committed to you and your case.
Our attorneys are experienced family practitioners who recognize the joy and fulfillment that being part of the process of adoption can bring. We will treat you with respect, care, and listen to your concerns and craft a strategic plan for your adoption in line with your goals and aspirations.
