Family lawyers frequently say that adoptions are the most rewarding aspect of family law. Adopting parents are happy. The children are happy. The lawyers and the judge are happy. We are bringing a family together rather than breaking a family apart.

But adoption issues can be very complex. Issues can arise if, for example, the adoption involves a child from another state or country, or if the rights of a biological parent must be terminated.

The attorneys at Easley & Marquis are practiced at making the process move more smoothly. We can ensure that the parents are not faced with unexpected complications such as an unknown parent trying to set aside the adoption years after the child has become a member of the new family.
