Understanding International Adoption

Get to Know the Basics

International adoption offers the incredible opportunity to give a loving home to a child from another part of the world. However, each country has its own set of legal requirements and procedures, which can significantly vary:

  • Non-Hague Adoptions: If you are adopting from a country that is not part of the Hague Adoption Convention, our attorneys can manage the legalities specific to that nation, helping to mitigate risks and streamline the process.
  • Hague Adoptions: For countries that are part of the Hague Adoption Convention, we will help you find a Hague-accredited agency. This ensures that all procedural safeguards are met to protect the best interests of the child.
  • Relative Adoptions: If you are looking to adopt a family member from overseas, we provide specialized legal services to navigate the specific requirements and ensure compliance with both U.S. and international laws.
