At Neumann Law Group, our adoption attorneys can help our clients with these sensitive matters. Let our adoption lawyers guide you through the legal process.

Types of Adoption Matters

There are many types of adoptions that we can assist with including infant adoptions, adult adoptions, state and court ward adoptions, stepparent adoptions, interstate adoptions, contested adoptions, and relative adoptions. All of these types of adoptions work differently. For example, in an infant adoption, it may be possible to temporarily place a child with a prospective adoptive parent immediately after their birth while legal proceedings are underway. by someone who is unrelated. They may also get the help of a child-placing agency or attorney.

Typically, prospective adoptive parents petition the court to adopt a particular child. The child’s biological parent, a child-placing agency, a court, or DHHS must provide consent. An investigation can be ordered to make sure that the child’s best interests are protected. If they find that adoption is in their best interest, the court will terminate the rights of the biological parent, agency, court, or DHHS and order placement in adoption with the prospective parents. Usually, the placement is supervised or monitored for a time and then if the court finds that the placement remains in the child’s best interest an adoption order will be finalized.

The adoption attorneys at Neumann Law Group are also able to assist with adoption matters that do not require intervention by DHHS. Parents may also select an adopting parent or consent to the adoption of their child. It is important to know that even if you have been afforded the opportunity for an uncontested adoption matter, you still need to have an experienced adoption attorney represent you to ensure all adoption terms/contracts/orders are accurate and fair and to prevent conflicts during the adoption proceedings.
