Adoption Attorneys
Adoption is the legal and emotional acceptance into
a parent's family of a child not born to the parent(s). The child will
have the parents' name and the same legal rights as a child by birth.
After an adoption is approved by a court, the parents will receive an
official decree and a birth certificate with the parents' name listed
as the parent.
Each state has its own adoption law, though adoption might affect Federal
Social Security law. As a general rule, an adult must be a fit parent
to adopt a child, and the parents do not have to be married. However,
it is generally much more difficult for unmarried couples or same-sex
couples to adopt, as adoption agencies are often biased towards married
couples.
