Adoption Solicitors in Devon
If you decide to adopt a child, either in the UK or from overseas, having expert legal advice is key. Our experienced Adoption Solicitors in Devon can support you in this highly complex legal area.
Legal Guidance Through the Adoption Process
The decision to adopt a child involves a detailed legal process. It usually includes you as the prospective adopter, the children’s guardians and/or birth parents, local authorities and the child. Where the child is being adopted from can produce complications, and consideration may need to be given to matters such as contact with birth relatives.
Advice for All Parties Involved
Conversely, if you object to an adoption, you need to know what to do too. Our legal experts are able to advise you on the adoption process from all sides.
Clear Advice and Representation
Regardless of where you plan to adopt from, options are explained before any action is taken. We clearly outline timescales, costs and what you should be thinking about at every stage of the adoption process. If you are having a child taken away, we can act for you too.
We explain things in plain, simple English and make sure you are kept informed throughout. Our legal team can attend case conferences, represent you at court, or negotiate with social workers when required.
