Solidifying Your Parental Relationship
Often when a divorced parent remarries, a new spouse or another important adult becomes an important part of the lives of the children. A child can form a bond with the adult very similar in many respects to the relationship between a child and the birth parent. The law provides a way for stepparents and their stepchildren to give this relationship official legal status.
I can help with this process. I have been a Broward and Miami-Dade County, Florida, attorney for more than 38 years. When you choose The Law Offices of Cindy D. Sackrin, you get a certified family law expert handling your stepparent adoption.
Types Of Cases
There are many contexts in which an adult would want to adopt:
- Stepparent adoptions: The new spouse of a divorced parent often becomes like a new mom or a new dad to the child. I can help you get official legal recognition for this relationship, if appropriate.
- Other close family member adoptions: Aunts, uncles, grandparents and other close family members can also become very close to a child whose parents have recently divorced. Adoption is a way to show the depth of that relationship.
