North Miami Beach adoption lawyer Michael Lechtman has over 39 years of experience helping families adopt a stepchild, grandchild, or other family member. Due to Florida’s extremely complex and changing adoption laws, families should beware that the process requires experience. Mr. Lechtman’s representation has resulted in successful adoptions for families in numerous communities, including Miami, Miami Beach, and Dade County. Family Adoption Where a minor is surrendered for adoption to an intermediary such as an adoption agency, the agency becomes the child’s legal guardian. Section 63.092 requires that the adoption entity report any placement with a person who is not a relative or stepparent of the child. Extended family members are still considered an “at-risk placement” if the birth parents have not yet consented to terminate their parental rights. In some cases, the court will require a study to determine the suitability of the intended home. A home study often involves: Interview with adoptive parents Determination of financial security Evaluation of physical environment Criminal and central abuse registry check Counseling, education, and support services Prohibited residence of sexual or child offender 305-652-9500 https://www.lechtmanlaw.com
