Adoption

The decision to adopt a child is one of the most important you will ever make.  We can help with all types of adoption including step-parent adoptions, and those where the child being adopted is from another country.

The adoption process is sometimes complex, lengthy and stressful. We have a depth of knowledge and experience in this field to guide you through the complexities, offering advice that is clear and jargon-free.

We recognise the need to make plans for the future when a child becomes part of your family and can call upon the advice from other departments in the LLP to assist – whether it be writing or rewriting a Will or making financial provisions for the future.

To find out how we can guide you through the process of adopting a child, contact one of our Family Law team using the links on the right.
