Adoption in Massachusetts can create difficult and confounding legal problems.
Adoptive parents may require assistance negotiating a contract with an adoption agency; they may have questions about the information they receive from the agency; they may want to negotiate an open adoption agreement; or there may be post adoption legal problems that must be addressed.
Birth parents may have legal questions about the validity of the surrender they signed or the open adoption agreement they want to arrange.
Litigation in adoption and child custody matters can become very complex and protracted. These cases raise difficult issues of law and child development.
The successful litigation of these cases requires attorneys who are familiar with the constantly changing legal issues as well as the difficult developmental issues raised whenever the courts are considering the best interests of the child.
