Adopting a child is a life-changing event. Adoptive parents have the opportunity to establish a stable, supportive home for a child who may otherwise be without one, which is extremely beneficial to their emotional and social development as they grow older.
Our New York City adoption counsel may be able to assist you if you are considering adopting a child. Our team of family lawyers at Tully Rinckey has the requisite knowledge about the legal nuances of adoption in the state of New York and can help you satisfy the legal requirements. Our objective is to walk you through the entire adoption process and make it as easy as possible for you.
Adoption is the means of establishing a legal relationship between a parent and a child who is not related to promote the child’s best interests. While adoption dissolves legal ties between a child and one or both of their biological parents, it creates new familial bonds for the adopted child.
Through adoption, an adult other than the birth parent becomes responsible for the child’s physical and emotional well-being. Domestic adoptions, through an agency, private adoptions, stepparent, foster, or second-parent adoptions, and international adoptions are just a few of the options available to give a loving home to a child.
Adoption laws vary from state to state, making it vital to have the help of a knowledgeable adoption attorney to guide you through the process. At Tully Rinckey, our lawyers will ensure your adoption is legally sound in New York State and can also help make arrangements for counseling and other services before and after the adoption is finalized.
We will make sure that all your rights are protected since not only do birth parents need to be aware of what it means to terminate their legal rights as parents, but the adopting family should understand the new relationship that they are entering into.
