MEETING WITH, OR TALKING TO, AN ADOPTION ATTORNEY OR AGENCY ABOUT GIVING MY BABY UP FOR ADOPTION SCARES ME.

We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) understand your fear. Like many national adoption agencies and local adoption agencies, we receive lots of completed contact forms from birth mothers and expectant mothers who have visited our website, www.LovingAdoptions.com, but who then do not respond after initially reaching out to us. We can only imagine that they were either very uncertain about adoption when they completed the contact form or the reality of actually talking about adoption overwhelmed them when we responded to their inquiry.

We, at Kirsh & Kirsh, take a no-pressure, non-judgmental approach, when talking with birth parents about how to put up their babies for adoption, or more correctly, make adoption plans for their newborns or soon-to-be-born babies.  The unknown scares all of us. Ironically, if a pregnant woman, thinking about adoption for her baby, would talk or meet with us, we would make the process less scary by explaining what she could expect in an adoption arranged by our office. We cannot make the decision to place a baby or parent the baby easy, but we can remove the unknowns about adoption, without the birth mother feeling pressured or judged for whatever decision she makes.

Our contact information is below.  We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C., will answer your questions and provide you the information you seek, without cost or obligation on your part. In other words, talking to us is FREE and does NOT mean you ever have to talk or text with us, again. Our adoption attorneys have 90 YEARS OF COMBINED EXPERIENCE practicing adoption law. We can help you find an AMAZING, WONDERFUL, adoptive home for your precious baby, whether you live in Greenwood or Indianapolis, Seymour or Bloomington, Evansville or Vincennes, or any Indiana county or city in between, or ANYWHERE in Tennessee, Mississippi, or Kentucky.

We have lots of wonderful, carefully screened, loving families, FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and are happy to assist with living expenses to the full extent allowed by law.

You can call, text, and or email us anytime —call: 317-575-5555, text: 317-721-2030, email: AdoptionSupport@kirsh.com, or Facebook message:  https://www.facebook.com/KirshandKirsh/. We answer our office phone 24 hours a day, every single day. We try to respond to emails and text messages within minutes of receipt.

POSITIVE ADOPTION LANGUAGE DISCLAIMER:  Please understand that these blog posts are written in a way to use language that people use when searching for help with their adoption plans.  Unfortunately, while all of us understand what positive adoption language means, most expectant moms that come to us at first do not understand what that means. The most common search term on the Internet for expectant moms is “how do I give up my baby for adoption”.  If we do not include those words in our blog posts, and instead put “how do I create an adoption plan for my baby” then our website will not show up in most expectant mom’s search results in Google.

IF I PUT UP MY BABY FOR ADOPTION, DO I HAVE TO SEE OR TAKE CARE OF THE BABY IN THE HOSPITAL?

No. Every birth mother who gives her baby up for adoption, or more correctly, makes an adoption plan for her baby, comes to peace with her decision in her own way. We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C., will honor whatever decision you make regarding seeing and/or caring for the baby in the hospital. If a birth mother opts not to do so, the prospective adoptive parents or hospital nursery nurses are more than happy to change, hold, feed, and nurture the baby. As obvious as it may sound, a woman, facing an untimely pregnancy and thinking about adoption, should void all of those things that make the decision harder and do all of those things that make her decision easier. Whether or not to see the baby is one of those choices. Over the years handling adoptions, we have found that most women choose to see the baby in the hospital, but adoption is a uniquely personal decision, and even though most women choose to see their babies, not all women make that choice. We make counseling available to the women who contact us about adoption. Frankly, we encourage (but do NOT require) counseling. Discussing with a counselor whether to see the baby may help an expectant mother to decide what is best for her.

A LOCAL ADOPTION AGENCY TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD NOT WORK WITH ADOPTION ATTORNEYS KIRSH & KIRSH, P.C. (“KIRSH & KIRSH’) BECAUSE THEY REPRESENT THE ADOPTIVE PARENTS AND DON’T CARE ABOUT BIRTH MOTHERS. IS THAT TRUE?

Kirsh & Kirsh usually represents the prospective adoptive parents, BUT IT IS ABSOLUTELY FALSE that Kirsh & Kirsh does not care about birth mothers. Nothing could be further from the truth. We have arranged adoptions in Indiana for more than 35 years. Over that time, we have earned an excellent reputation with expectant mothers and birth mothers because of the genuine concern and care we show them. We know that birth mothers are heroes. Nothing demonstrates a parent’s love for her child more than putting her child’s needs ahead of her own. We treat birth mothers with the kindness and respect they deserve – it is just the right thing to do and consistent with the interests of our clients, the prospective adoptive parents.

We tell expectant mothers at our first meeting with them that we are not their attorneys, what they tell us is not confidential or subject to attorney-client privilege and cannot provide legal advice to them. However, we give birth parents information about loving, carefully screened, prospective adoptive parents, make all the arrangements for the adoption, and remain available 24/7/365 during their pregnancy and after to answer their non-legal questions. In the 90 years of combined experience practicing adoption in Indiana, our 4 attorneys have found that rarely do the questions expectant mothers ask involve legal advice, and when a birth mother asks a question that calls for legal advice, we arrange for them to speak with their own attorney, at NO EXPENSE to them.

We pride ourselves on the relationship we have with birth mothers and appreciate the referrals of new birth mothers by those women, who have previously placed their babies up for adoption, or more correctly made an adoption plan for their babies, make to us. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT.

I PUT UP MY BABY FOR ADOPTION AND WANT THE BABY BACK. HOW DO I DO THAT?

In many states, it is not possible, but it depends on the state in which the adoption attorney or adoption agency files the adoption and what the birth mother signed allowing the child to be placed for adoption. If the birth mother signed a consent to adoption in Indiana, Indiana law does not give a birth parent the right to change the right to change their mind and get the child back. Most Indiana adoption agencies, national adoption agencies, and Indiana adoption attorneys, Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), included, will have the birth mother confirm her consent to adoption for the court in Indiana adoptions. If a birth mother confirms her consent to adoption for the judge in Indiana by telephone, Zoom, or in person, Indiana Adoption statutes do not provide a way to withdraw her consent to adoption and get the baby back. If the birth mother has not confirmed her consent to adoption for the court, the birth mother could, within 30 days of signing the consent, file a motion with the court, ask the court for a hearing, and, at that hearing attempt to prove the child’s best interests dictate that the court allow her to withdraw her consent. In the many newborn adoptions Kirsh & Kirsh has facilitated, rarely, has a birth mother tried to withdraw her consent, largely because Kirsh & Kirsh does not pressure women to sign consents to adoption and gives them plenty of opportunity not to sign the consent to adoption, up to and including during the consent to adoption signing.

We have over the 35+ years of experience arranging adoptions in Indiana and have assisted numerous birth mothers with their adoption plans. Below will be information about how to contact us. We will answer your questions and provide you the information you seek, without cost or obligation on your part. In other words, talking to us costs you nothing nor does it mean you ever have to talk or text with us, again. We can assist you with an Indiana adoption no matter whether you live in Ft. Wayne or Evansville, Clarksville or Gary, South Bend or Jasper, or any Indiana county or city in between.

We have lots of wonderful, carefully screened, loving families (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and are happy to assist with living expenses to the full extent allowed by law.

I AM THINKING ABOUT PUTTING MY BABY UP FOR ADOPTION BUT DON’T LIVE IN INDIANAPOLIS. CAN ADOPTION ATTORNEYS KIRSH & KIRSH, P.C (“KIRSH & KIRSH”) STILL HELP ME?

Yes! Not only can we, at Kirsh & Kirsh, help you find a wonderful, thoroughly investigated, carefully screened home for your soon-to-be-born or newborn baby, we will travel to meet you in Ft. Wayne or anywhere in Allen County, Angola, or anywhere in Steuben County, South Bend, or anywhere in St. Joseph County, Hammond, or anywhere in Lake County,  Sellersburg, or anywhere in Clark County, Goshen, or anywhere in Elkhart County, Columbus, or anywhere in Bartholomew County, Bloomington, or anywhere in Monroe, Warsaw or anywhere in Kosciusko County, Indianapolis or Marion County. No matter where you live, you NEVER pay us anything for our assistance in giving your baby up for adoption or, more correctly making an adoption plan for your baby. Likewise, talking to, or meeting with, us about adoption does not obligate you to proceed with the adoption or even work with us. We are happy to meet you by telephone, Skype, Face Time, Zoom, or in person, to explain how we handle adoptions, and most importantly, give you an opportunity to see if you would like working with us.

We, at Kirsh & Kirsh, have assisted many pregnant women, in Indiana and around the country, to find loving, happy, wonderful homes for their babies. We give expectant mothers and birth mothers as much or as little involvement in the family selection process as they would like.

We have lots of wonderful, carefully screened, loving families (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and are happy to assist with living expenses to the full extent allowed by law.

I PLAN TO GIVE UP MY BABY FOR ADOPTION. WHAT WILL HAPPEN AT THE HOSPITAL?

Often pregnant women, who contact us at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) about placing their babies up for adoption, or more correctly, making an adoption plan for their babies, want to know what will happen in the hospital.

We, at Kirsh & Kirsh, give birth mothers total control over what takes place at the hospital, including who the birth mother chooses to have in labor and delivery with her, who can see and spend time with the baby after birth, how much time the birth mother spends with the baby, whether she wants to care for the baby in the hospital herself or have the nurses or adoptive parents do so, and when she wants the adoptive parents to arrive at the hospital – for labor and delivery, after delivery, prior to her discharge from the hospital, or at any other time. In short, the birth mother makes ALL decisions for the baby and her in the hospital.

Additionally, at Kirsh & Kirsh, we make sure that the birth mother can spend time with the baby, even after she signs her consent to the adoption.

When the baby is ready for discharge from the hospital, the baby leaves into the loving arms of the adoptive parent(s). Kirsh & Kirsh does not require intermediate foster care nor will the Indiana or Tennessee Department of Children Services (“DCS”),  the Mississippi Department of Child Protective Services (“CPS”), nor the Kentucky Child Protection Branch (“CHFS”) have any involvement in an adoption arranged by Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh.

Over the last 35+ years, we, at Kirsh & Kirsh, have assisted many pregnant women, in Indiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, and around the country, with finding loving, happy, wonderful homes for their babies. We give expectant mothers and birth mothers as much or as little involvement in the family selection process as they would like.

We have lots of wonderful, carefully screened, loving families (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and happy to assist with living expenses to the full extent allowed by law.
