Fostering is an experience like no other, offering you the chance to give children a stable and loving home while their biological parents work to regain custody. However, there are times when their parents are unable to complete their goals for one reason or another, which gives you the chance to provide a forever home for the children in your care. At Hildebrand Law Office, P.C., we can help you navigate the DFCS adoption process, as well as answer any questions you might have along the way. To start, here are a few things to consider.
Multiple Steps in the Process: The DFCS adoption process has many steps that need to be checked off before moving to the next stage. We can help you understand where your particular case is in the process and how long it might take to move forward. It’s also important to understand that no two situations are the same, so even if you have adopted before, the second time around might look different.
Flexibility Is Key: When it comes to fostering, it is essential to not only work with the children in your care on their level but also be flexible and ready for anything that comes your way. When it comes to the adoption process, this might include needing to submit additional documentation or ensuring your foster child gets appropriate ongoing services that help set them up for success. Either way, if you have questions or simply need support, we will be right by your side to help.
Experience Matters: Because the DFCS adoption process can be a tricky one to navigate on your own, it is vital that you have an experienced team on your side to help explain the ins and outs and ensure the best possible results for you and the children in your care. With over 20 years of experience, our attorney has the knowledge and hands-on experience you need.
