LGBT Adoption

Gay adoption can arguably be one of life’s most joyful journeys. For same-sex couples, however, the LGBTQ adoption path has historically been strewn with hurdles. Now that Proposition 8 has been overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, some forms of same-sex adoption are less tricky. Yet other types of lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender adoption remain challenging. That’s why you need a law firm on your side that has up-to-the-minute knowledge of the rapidly changing legal landscape of LGBTQ rights. That’s why you need the Liebmann Family Law.

Liebmann Family Law delivers myriad legal services to LGBTQ individuals and couples who want to adopt a baby or child. We can explain the legal implications of different avenues of the adoption process, such as whether the adoption will be recognized throughout the country or only in the U.S., and which states and countries allow LGBTQ individuals and couples to adopt. Our team can help with stepparent adoptions of a spouse’s biological child, stepparent adoptions of a registered domestic partner’s child, agency and independent adoptions, termination of birth parents rights’, and adoption finalization.
