Adoption Paralegal Services
Trusted, Affordable, Professional

Most divorces can be amicable and there is no need to hire expensive attorneys, in fact, most people hire a divorce paralegal to Save Money and make the process of getting a divorce a lot less painless. Paralegals can work independently from an attorney and can assist you with the basic matters of a divorce. Paralegals typically charge less than divorce attorneys.

The Adoption Process

Adoption paralegals perform the legally required procedural work for adoptions that would otherwise be performed by the attorney. Our adoption paralegals have completed formal education and paralegal training leading to certification. We have experience and knowledge in assisting with adoptions overseen by an adoption attorney or client direct.

Adoption paralegals may also be referred to as adoption specialists when they work for an adoption agency. Within an adoption agency, the adoption paralegal/specialist may be trained to conduct interviews with prospective parents beginning an adoption search. They can provide advice to parents in completing the “information pack” given to parents at the start of the process.

Questions you’ll be asked before the adoption process begins include:

 

  • Why are you adopting?
  • What financial or medical help may you receive?
  • How will you help a child adapt to their new home?
  • What things do you need to consider when adopting?
  • How do you start the process?
  • Are there advantages to American adoptions?

The process of adoption in California varies based on the type of adoption you’re pursuing. Typically, the process is as follows:

 

  • Finding an adoption paralegal or attorney
  • Filling out court forms
  • Filing the forms with the court
  • Get consent from the birth parent (if necessary)
  • Interview and submit to an investigation
  • Get a court date and go to the adoption hearing
Our Adoption Paralegal team does the procedural legal work as authorized by law for adoptions which otherwise would be performed by the attorney. We often perform these services at a fraction of the cost. Our Adoption Paralegals have taken education courses and training as a paralegal (and classes in law school) which resulted in a certification. Our team has more than 20 years of adoption paralegal experience. Adoption Paralegal usually gains experience and knowledge through assisting in adoptions overseen by an adoption attorney.

Common Adoption issues our paralegal team services

Step Parent / Domestic Partner
Adoption

  • The spouse or domestic partner of the child’s parent adopts the child.
  • The couple must be legally married or registered as domestic partners.
  • It is a little simpler than other types because 1 of the child’s birth parents still remains the child’s parent.
  • The most common type of adoption.

Open Adoption

You will have ongoing contact with the birth parent(s) throughout and after the adoption takes place.

Semi-Open Adoption

Communication between you and the biological parent(s) is restricted. You can send and receive photos and letters; however, an agency or third party will be a liaison.

Closed Adoption

There is no contact with the birth parent(s) before, during, or after the birth of the child.

Common Questions About Using A Paralegal

Paralegals draft and prepare legal documents. These include case files, pleadings, and other documents that are necessary in legal cases.

  • Research
  • Case Preparation
  • Document
  • Management
  • Courtroom and Legal Proceedings Assistance
  • Communication and Coordination

The duties of a paralegal encompass a variety of tasks that are focused on providing the right information in legal proceedings, actions, hearings, and trials so you are prepared.

Less Money: Paralegals cost much less than lawyers. Paralegals will quote a price before starting work. Attorneys more money by billing each minute they work with you. Why spend more money than you have to?

Faster Results: Paralegals will complete the required documents and submit them, whereas attorneys can take much longer for the same process because they have an incentive to stretch it out.
  1. Look for an established paralegal business.
  2. Ask about the paralegal’s experience: length and breadth of experience.
  3. Look for professional certifications & recognition.
  4. Read reviews of satisfied customers.
  5. Most importantly: Call and ask questions. A good paralegal will answer your questions with ease & confidence. We are happy to answer all your questions. Call us: 833-500-2009.
