Adopting a child from overseas can be highly rewarding, but the complexities mean that it is important to have proper legal advice. The process can be very intricate, with different assessments and rules and regulations to comply with. Not getting these details correct could reduce your chances of successfully adopting a child, and could create problems later down the line.
You will also need to consider the impact that such an adoption will have on your existing family, and whether family building options are better for you.
As leading lawyers with expertise in fertility, adoption and family law, we will ensure your interests are protected and will provide you with expert advice from the outset. We will provide you with comprehensive advice to give you the best chance of success in your journey.
We can provide legal advice ahead of your application, helping you to prepare for assessments and to decide whether international adoption is the right route for you. We will also help you through the process, making sure all legal formalities are dealt with and you, and your child’s legal position is secure.
We offer a free consultation to qualifying individuals. Please call our confidential enquiry line on 020 7404 9390. Lines are staffed 24 hours.
