•          Stepparents adoption – In this case, usually, one member of the married couple would have a child from a previous marriage or probably a relationship. The other member of the marriage can legally adopt the child based on the relationship the marriage forms between the child and the adopting stepparent.
•          LGBT adoptions — If an LGBT couple wishes to adopt a child where there are no children from a former marriage or relationship, our Georgia adoption lawyers can facilitate the process. We legally make the adoption process possible.
•          Third-party adoptions — In this case, the adoption happens via an agency or other source. Our lawyers help you by looking out for your interest in case of any complications and handling the paperwork.
