Adoption Lawyer Valparaiso, IN

Adoption

When you are planning to adopt, let the compassionate lawyers at Patton Law help you with the process.

Our Valparaiso law firm represents step-parents, grandparents, foster care and foster parents, individuals, and couples (married or unmarried). We represent any person, who wishes to adopt a child in their care or wish to adopt a newborn.

An adoption attorney plays the role of a client's guide and legal representative throughout the intricate process of adopting a child. They often serve as the initial point of contact in this journey. This entails the adoption attorney collaborating with the prospective couple or individual seeking to adopt, assisting them in locating an adoption agency, and acting as the intermediary between the adopter and the agency to ensure compliance with all legal prerequisites.

While many individuals opt to utilize an adoption agency to facilitate the adoption process and identify a child, there are instances when adoption takes place independently, commonly referred to as private adoption. Whether engaged in the adoption process through an agency or independently, Patton Law is here to help.
