About Adoption in California

Adoption is a legal process wherein a person assumes legal custody of another's child. The person or couple looking to adopt will assume full legal responsibility for the child and will raise him or her from that point on. The biological parents would surrender their rights as parents and would also no longer be responsible for the child. In the eyes of the law, the adoptive parents would now be the legal parents of the child and would make all decisions about the child's education, religion, medical care, and more.

Adoption is a valuable part of our legal system, giving children in need the opportunity to be taken into loving homes where they will be taken care of. If you or your family is interested in adopting a new child into your home, immediately talk to an adoption lawyer at our Santa Clarita or San Fernando Valley office! There are many different aspects to the adoption process that many families in the area are unaware of, and informing yourself before choosing to adopt will be the best decision. Whether your new spouse is adopting your biological child or you are welcoming a new child into your family from another area, our law firm will be able to provide you with the information you need to know.
