Adoption by Step-Parents and Relatives

Atlanta Lawyers for Adoption by Step-Parents and Other Relatives

Adoption can change the life of a child forever. At The Manely Firm, P.C., we handle several different types of adoption, including step-parent adoption, grandparent adoption and adoption by other relatives like aunts and uncles.

When another family member wants to become the parent of a child, we offer the legal representation needed to help the family achieve results. We understand that these issues can sometimes become complex and emotional, but we are well prepared to guide our clients through the legal system.

Termination of Parental Rights

If there is a non-participating parent — like a parent who has been incarcerated or otherwise uninvolved in the child's life — termination of parental rights must occur before the other relative can adopt. At The Manely Firm, P.C., we understand the law concerning termination of parental rights and we can help resolve any related complications.

If you are concerned about step-parent adoption, the best way to learn about your options is to work with an experienced lawyer. To schedule a free initial consultation with an attorney at The Manely Firm, P.C., call us toll free at 866-687-8561 or complete our online contact form.
