Representing Adoptive Parents
At Robbins, Kelly, Patterson & Tucker (RKPT), we represent step-parents, extended family and grandparents and prospective adoptive parents in the process of adoption. As committed members of this Cincinnati community, we have done extensive work with Catholic Social Services to help many clients' dreams of parenthood come true. With offices in Cincinnati and Mason, our Cincinnati adoption attorneys represent clients throughout the Tri-State Area of Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana, and throughout the world in the context of international adoptions.
Types of Adoptions
Our attorneys handle a wide range of adoption and family law related issues, including:
- Step-parent adoptions: After the death of a parent or a divorce, it is common for a child to form a bond with the step-parent. We can help you seal the relationship and give legal acknowledgment to the relationship with a step-parent adoption.
- Extended family and grandparent adoptions: When parents are unable to care for their children on their own, extended family and grandparents frequently step in to provide and care for the children. It is common for grandparents, aunts, uncles and other relatives who are taking care of children to make the relationship official with adoption.
- Contested adoptions: We can represent prospective adoptive parents or birth parents who are disputing an adoption.
- International adoptions: We have experience representing clients who wish to adopt a child from another country.
Adoption is a complicated legal process. For more than 45 years, our clients have trusted us with the legal aspects of adoption. We will explain the rights and responsibilities of adoptive parenthood and help you through the process.
