Kissimmee Adoption Attorney and
Lawyer, providing
experienced Child Adoption
and Family Law legal
services in Kissimmee,

The
adoption
of a minor child is the
legal process
by which a parent - child relationship is created between
persons not related by blood, or related by blood in a
relative child adoption. After a successful and lawful
adoption the adopted child becomes entitled
to all the privileges of a minor child born to the adoptive parent.
In the
State of Florida, a child may be adopted by:
-
A husband
and wife jointly;
-
An
unmarried adult; or
-
A married
person without the other spouse joining as a petitioner,
if the person to be adopted is not his or her spouse,
and if:
-
A married
person without the other spouse joining as a petitioner,
if the other spouse is a parent of the person to be
adopted and consents to the adoption;
-
A married
person without the other spouse joining as a petitioner,
if the failure of the other spouse to join in the
petition or to consent to the adoption is excused by the
court for good cause shown or in the best interest of
the child.

Under
Florida Law,
the adoption of a non-blood
related minor child is currently prohibited if the adoptive parent is a
homosexual. An individual who has a physical disability or
handicap may not be prohibited from adopting a child based
solely due to their physical disability or handicap unless
it is determined by the court or adoption entity that such
disability or handicap renders such person incapable of
serving as an effective parent.
The adoption process can be
long and very complicated. Even the smallest oversight can
delay or prove to be a roadblock in a person's quest to adopt a
child. Therefore, seeking the legal advice and
representation of experienced legal counsel may provide the
best opportunity to achieve a successful adoption of a
child.
