Stepparent Adoption
At WCN, we are large enough to have expertise in many law practices including family law, while small enough to deliver exceptional service through a personalized, concierge approach. We serve clients in Massachusetts with our primary office in Wellesley, MA and additional offices in Chelmsford and Boston.
We help stepparents with the adoption process in Massachusetts. Our skilled family law attorneys assist a stepparent throughout the process to successfully adopt your spouse’s children. We assist stepparents with adoption in the case where a parent has passed away as well as in the situation where both biological parents are alive and approval of adoption by the stepparent is agreed to. The family law attorneys at WCN have a history of success in defending against uncontested stepparent adoption.
