Legal Guardianship and Adoption Services for Families in Troy
Parents want to be sure that their kids will be well taken care of if something happens. Beyond material needs, parents want to know that their children will be raised with the values that the parents would have instilled had they been able. To that end, parents may have someone in mind they want to serve as a guardian.
Our Troy family lawyers can help parents make their wishes legally binding and prevent their kids from either going into the system or to a relative that they would prefer not to be the one in charge.
We can provide further legal assistance to those who are wanting to step up and provide a home for children in need. Sometimes, that can be a guardianship, wherein a grandparent or other close relative adopts the child. In other cases, it may involve going through the adoption system.
Adoption is a long process, and while it brings joy to families and adds great benefits to society, there’s no shortage of stress to manage and legal hurdles to jump through. Lopez, Severt & Pratt Co has the experience necessary to guide people, and our personalized 24/7 access can be a relief for potential guardians and adoptive parents.
