WHICH ADOPTION ATTORNEY OR ADOPTION AGENCY IS THE BEST IN INDIANA, TENNESSEE, MISSISSIPPI, AND KENTUCKY?

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” Individuals will make their judgment of who is the “Best” of anything, based upon factors they considered important. Some people will consider the following factors in determining who is the best Adoption Attorney or Adoption Agency in Indiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Kentucky:

  1. How years of experience does the adoption agency or adoption attorney have? However, look carefully: some agencies and law firms will add the years of experience of all their employees together to give the impression of having more years of experience than the agency or firm really has. Most would agree that an adoption attorney who has been handling adoptions for 35+ years has more experience than an adoption agency with 7 employees and claims to have “combined” experience of 35 years (7 employees times 5 years each). 
  2. Compare apples to apples. In other words, if you need help with a step-parent adoption, look for an adoption professional with lots of experience handling step-parent adoptions. Likewise, if you ask an agency or law firm how many adoptions they have handled and you are interested in newborn adoption, ask for the newborn adoption number, without including step-parent or DCS adoptions.
  3. What have others said? Which adoption agency or attorney has more 5-Star Google Reviews and/or Facebook “Likes”?
  4. If you are a pregnant woman considering giving your baby up for adoption (or more correctly: making an adoption plan or placing your child for adoption) – with whom has your OBGYN or the local hospital social worker had a good experience as an adoption professional? 
  5. How easy is it to reach the adoption professional? Which adoption agency or adoption attorney answers their telephone 24/7/365 by a member of their regular office staff, or does you call go to voice mail or an answering service?
  6. Does the adoption attorney or adoption agency have an established place of business or, at least, a licensed attorney in your state? Or does a national adoption agency just have online presence? Who do you think understands adoption law and procedure better – an attorney licensed to practice law in your state or a national adoption agency with a big Internet presence? 
  7. Is the adoption provider even a lawyer or an adoption agency or just a “baby broker”? Are they licensed as lawyers or a child-placing agency?

Again, people will have their own criteria in deciding with whom they would like to work as they consider adoption. For most people, trusting their “gut feeling” usually works out well. Or, to say it differently, “follow your instincts.”

I Brought The Baby Home From The Hospital. Is It Too Late To Give My Baby Up For Adoption?

It is NOT too late. We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), for more than 35 years, have helped many birth mothers put their babies up for adoption (make adoption plans) after they have left the hospital with the babies. In some of those situations, the birth mother looked into adoption before giving birth and then decided, at the last minute, to parent the baby – often because of promises of emotional, financial, and parenting support from friends and family. Some birth mothers, who later reconsidered adoption, discovered that such promises, while well-intended, did not materialize or were not consistent or sufficient enough to enable the birth mother to parent the child. Unquestionably, a birth parent thinking about placing her or his child for adoption faces an immensely difficult decision, but parenting a child without financial, emotional, and other resources is not easy, by any means. Both decisions deserve careful consideration because of their lifelong consequences.

Whether you have left the hospital with the baby or are still in the hospital, if you are not certain that you have the resources – emotional, financial, or otherwise — to parent the child, you owe it to yourself and precious newborn to, at least, explore adoption. Meeting with, or talking to, adoption law firm, like Kirsh & Kirsh, or an adoption agency does not obligate you to proceed with an adoption. At Kirsh & Kirsh, we will treat you will kindness and respect, never pressure you to proceed with adoption, or judge you.
