Making the decision to adopt a child is a big decision. Not only are you adding a new member to your family, but you are also helping a child that might not otherwise have that chance to grow up in a stable and healthy home environment. Attorney Forrester can help you understand your legal options and what you should be aware of.

Attorney Forrester understands the ins and outs of the adoption system in Alabama. We are proud to offer our clients in-depth knowledge and information to help them on their journey to adoption. 

Common forms of Adoption – Adoption is the legal process within the realm of family law in which approved individuals who are not recognized as the birthparents of a child are permitted to assume guardianship of a child. In addition, adoption can be via a step parent adoption, in which an individual who marries one of the biological parents seeks to adopt the child.

While the adoption process is lengthy, it is not impossible. However, due to the fact that the wellbeing of a child is a primary concern of adoption agencies and asocial legal authorities, the adoption process will typically focus on the investigation and analysis of lives and details, with regard to any or all prospective parents interested in adoption.
