Stepparent Adoptions and Contested Adoptions
Our attorneys represent clients in stepparent adoptions and contested adoptions where the termination of parental rights is required. Even in a "simple" stepparent adoption, there are legal requirements that must be met to safeguard your rights and complete the process of adoption.
In a contested adoption case, we have the experience required to provide the quality legal representation you require. Our attorneys work closely with clients to provide accessible and highly personalized service.
Know Your Rights
If you are thinking about adopting a child, it is important that you understand your rights. In a stepparent adoption, the stepfather or stepmother that is adopting the child should know that they accept all of the legal rights and obligations of a natural parent once an adoption takes place. For example, the stepparent that adopts a child is legally responsible for child support.
Our attorneys can help guide you through the process, educate you about the law, and provide the comprehensive support you require.
