Florida Adoption Lawyer
Growing your family through adoption is cause for celebration. However, the process of adopting is challenging, filled with potential complications that could prevent the joyous event from coming to fruition. To help ensure a smooth transition for your entire family, speak with an experienced adoption attorney.
My name is Faith Z. Lodder. A skilled family law attorney, I have extensive experience bringing families together in loving environments. From my office in Sarasota, I represent birth mothers and fathers, grandparents, stepparents and other adoptive parents throughout southwestern Florida.
Types of Adoptions
My firm assists clients with various types of adoptions, including:
- Private adoption
- Grandparent and relative adoption
- Stepparent adoption
In certain instances, termination of parental rights may be necessary to move an adoption forward. I have experience helping parents voluntarily terminate their parental rights, as well as dealing with biological parents who oppose a potential adoption. Rest assured, I am prepared to protect your rights as an adoptive parent and the child's rights.
The Adoption Process
Adoption involves an abundance of confusing and time-consuming paperwork. Failure to complete and file all necessary documents accurately and in a timely manner could cause delays or even result in the dismissal of your adoption petition.
As your lawyer, I will handle all the required paperwork from start to finish. Because I am familiar with the process, I know what to expect and how to help you reach your goal. I have successfully assisted countless families with adoptions. Let me help you.
