We are very family-oriented and feel there’s nothing more important that we do than help families adopt children. We have over 35 years of experience assisting families who are adopting children in every type of adoption proceeding.
This includes the following types of adoptions:
- Agency-assisted adoptions
- Adoptions of foreign-born children
- Private, non-agency adoptions
- Related and step-parent adoptions
- Adoptions of DCFS wards
- Adult adoptions
- Interstate adoptions
- Standby adoptions
- Contested adoptions
