Adoptions Take Many Forms

​

Intrafamily adoption is common. In this type of adoption, one parent remarries. In undertaking stepparent adoptions, we either get the consent of the biological parents or terminate parental rights, which is a difficult process. We also handle many grandparent adoptions for which the consent of the parents is needed.

​

The biological father whose paternity can be established through DNA testing must consent to an adoption.

​

There are many things that happen in connection with child adoption that are quite wonderful, and lives are changed.
