Step-Parent Adoptions

If you are a step-parent interested in adopting the Minor Child(ren) of your Spouse and the biological parent(s) and/or all other applicable interested parties consent to the adoption of the Minor Child(ren), then you may need assistance filing for and obtaining a final judgment of adoption including the changing of the Minor Child(ren)’s last name, if applicable. These are some of our favorite cases at SHAMY, EL FADEL & MAHONE because of the joy that these matters bring to a new family as they begin their new lives. We would honored to assist you in beginning and completing this journey.
