In Virginia there are several kinds of adoptions, each one with its own rules and documentation. It is essential for prospective parents to have representation by an experienced family law attorney who understands the difference between various adoptions to provide guidance and protect your interests throughout the process. Our attorneys have also represented the interest of birth mothers and fathers who are involved in either a private adoption or a termination of parental rights case.
Many adoptions are straightforward, with no conflicts of interest between birth parents and adoptive parents. We work to create adoption and related agreements that are thoughtful and fair to all sides, but set unmistakable limits. We will effectively address the issues specific to your needs, including the following:
- Stepparent adoptions
- Grandparent and other relative adoptions
- Single-parent adoptions
- Same-sex couples seeking adoptions
- Foster care adoptions
- International adoptions
- Private adoptions
- Agency adoptions
- Guardianships
- Surrogacy agreements
- Termination of parental rights
The lawyers at The Laurel Brigade Law Group can help guide you on the path to parenthood.
