Choosing adoption is the greatest gift you can give to a child. By adopting, you are promising a child a forever home and a sense of belonging. Under Missouri and Kansas law, an adopted child is granted all the rights and privileges as if born to you.
There are many avenues to complete your family through adoption, including:
Private Adoptions
Agency Adoptions
Adoption Through The Foster Care System
The primary consideration in any adoption is Best Interests of the Child. There are many factors that the court will consider, including the child's age, family connections, and the opportunities offered by the adopting family.
When choosing to adopt, it is important to hire an attorney that specializes in adoption law. Whether it is a step-child adoption, private adoption, or through an agency, the attorneys at Kaiser / Lawless, LLP can help make your family complete. Contact our office today to discuss your options.
