Stepparent Adoption Attorneys in New York City

The adoption attorneys at Greenberg & Greenberg are experienced with stepparent adoptions in Family and Surrogate's Court, as there are more stepparent adoptions in the United States than all other types of adoption combined.

In order to adopt a stepchild, consent of the child's biological parent is required. By giving his or her consent, the non-custodial parent gives up all responsibilities, including child support, but also renounces all rights related to the child, including visitation and child custody rights. If the biological parent refuses to sign a Surrender, litigation in Family and Surrogates court is necessary in order to terminate parental rights. If the child is 14 years or older, he or she needs to consent to the adoption.

Greenberg & Greenberg will use their energy and experience to help you adopt the child you love.
