Our Adoption Practice
We focus our adoption practice on:
- Third-party adoptions
- Family adoptions
- Stepparent adoptions
We handle all matters related to or arising out of the adoption process, preparing and filing all necessary documentation to complete an adoption, and acting as your advocate with birth parents, adoption agencies and the courts. We will advise you regarding all requirements, from home studies to background checks.
We will also take care of all issues related to parental rights termination, always seeking to obtain a voluntary termination, if possible. We understand the emotional issues associated with the termination of parental rights and can help you work with biological parents, so that they understand that adoption is in the best interests of their child.
If the biological parent is unwilling to voluntarily relinquish parental rights, we have the experience and skill to help you take the steps necessary to protect the interests of the child. We know how to evaluate and present evidence to demonstrate to a court that the termination of parental rights is best for the minor child. We will look at criminal and health records, including mental health history, as well as any evidence of abuse, to make certain you and the court have full information on which to base a decision.
