A Knoxville Family Law Firm Dedicated to Guiding You Through the Adoption Process
While many family law cases focus on difficult separations, adoption is a beautiful exception that creates new and lasting bonds between children and their adoptive parents. The adoption process can be complex, with strict legal requirements that must be carefully followed. Working with an experienced family law attorney ensures the process is handled correctly and efficiently.
At the Law Office of Lisa Collins Werner in Knoxville, we’ve had the privilege of helping families across the region through the adoption process. We understand how important this issue is to you, especially when the future of a child is at stake. Our team is committed to providing you with compassionate guidance and clear, direct communication throughout the journey.
What Circumstances Lead to the Need for Adoption?
Every adoption case is unique and driven by its own set of circumstances. Common situations include the termination of parental rights through a court order or voluntary surrender, often due to factors such as addiction or incarceration that prevent a parent from caring for their child.
Adoptions can involve relatives—such as a grandparent, aunt, uncle, or older sibling—stepping in to provide care, or they may involve a stepparent who is adopting a partner’s child. While the adoption process can be challenging, especially when it involves legal hurdles, the outcome is often rewarding for both the child and the new parents. Having a skilled attorney like Lisa Collins Werner by your side ensures the process runs smoothly and legally.
