We Can Help Make a Stepchild Your Child
One of the more rewarding, and most complex, areas of family law is our practice of uniting families through adoption. If you are contemplating at a stepparent or third-party adoption, contact attorneys Jeffrey L. Levy and Mary B. Langford in Nashville, Tennessee.
Are you a stepparent looking to formalize your relationship with your spouse's child? Are you seeking a third-party adoption in the state of Tennessee? We can help. Contact us at (615) 866-0235.
Establishing New Parental Relationships
While stepparent adoption can foster long-term, loving relationships, there are specific legal steps that need attention. First and foremost, is the termination of the parental rights. If the biological parent abandoned the child and refused to foster a post-divorce relationship, we will assist you in establishing a new parental relationship through a stepparent adoption.
Disputing Termination of Parental Rights
Conversely, if you are a parent disputing the possible loss of your parental rights, attorneys Jeffrey L. Levy and Mary B. Langford may be able to help. If you are a good father or mother who has made an effort to have a relationship with your child, you have rights — rights that need protection from a seasoned family law attorney.
Helping Parents With Third-Party Adoptions
In addition to stepparent adoptions, we also help couples unable to have children of their own through private adoptions. Primarily, we help those who want to adopt a child using a Tennessee-based agency.
