Adoptions

The addition of a child to a family is a momentous event. You have the opportunity to provide love and guidance to a child who will return that love for years. Adoption, however, is a big step. You will be responsible for the child until he or she reaches adulthood. There are also a number of legal tasks that must be completed before you can enjoy parenthood.

At Lickert Law Firm, we gain great professional and personal satisfaction from facilitating adoptions. Our firm works to achieve adoptions as quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.

Lickert Law Firm can provide advice, services and representation in these types of adoptions:

  • Stepparent adoptions
  • Grandparent adoptions
  • Adoptions by siblings or other family members
  • Private adoptions (stranger adoptions)
