Voluntary Relinquishment
Strategic Advocacy When Divorce Isn’t Agreeable
Adoption
Adoption has many facets and touches people in different ways depending on their role and perspective. Adoptions are by far the highlight of family law. Adoption is a legal process that establishes a permanent, legal relationship between a child and individuals who are not their biological parents. The specific details and requirements of adoption can vary.
Voluntary Relinquishment
A voluntary relinquishment is a decision made by a birth parent or parents to give up their parental rights and consent to the adoption of their child. It occurs when the birth parent(s) willingly chooses to relinquish their rights because they believe it is in the best interest of the child.
Voluntary relinquishment is typically a thoughtful and considered decision made by birth parents who may feel they are unable to provide the necessary care, stability, or support for their child. It’s important to note that the laws and procedures regarding voluntary relinquishment vary by jurisdiction.
