Henry M. Weinfeld will handle your adoption case through a three-step process:

Assessment. We begin with a consultation, where we review your parenting history and adoption goals, and identify any issues that may complicate the process. We then go over the timeline and what to expect. At the conclusion of this phase, we’ll have a clear plan on how to proceed.

Document Preparation. We’ll make sure that all the necessary paperwork gets filed, including the verified complaint for adoption, a certificate of verification, and an affidavit of circumstances among others. We ensure that a final agency investigative report is required along with the home study and evaluation, and we’ll ensure that the agency completes the work in a timely fashion.

Preliminary and Final Hearings. Weinfeld will represent you as adoptive parents to see that the judge sees the true facts of the case and is more likely to rule in your favor. Once the adoption is granted, we prepare a final decree of adoption and work towards obtaining a new birth certificate for your child.
