Finding the Right Adoption Attorney: Understanding Their Role in Your Journey

If adoption is crossing your mind while dealing with an unplanned pregnancy, it doesn’t mean you are giving up. It means you are already thinking about your baby’s future. There are adoption attorneys in Indiana ready to walk with you without pressure, judgment, or expectations.

You Have More Power Than You Think

Indiana law gives you real, meaningful control over the entire adoption process more than many women expect. Here’s what that actually means:

You Choose the Adoptive Family

Scroll through profiles. Meet families in person or virtually. Ask questions. Trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right—keep looking.

You Design Your Adoption Plan

You choose the type of adoption:

• Open – stay connected through photos, messages, or even visits
• Semi-open – some contact, but with more boundaries
• Closed – no ongoing communication if that feels safer for you

You can even choose what your hospital experience looks like—whether you want the adoptive parents involved or prefer quiet time alone with your baby.

You can get help with:

• Rent
• Food
• Maternity clothes
• Medical bills
• Transportation
• Counseling before, during, and long after birth

Support can continue for up to six weeks after delivery.

You Can Change Your Mind

Nothing is final until after your baby is born and you sign your consent. Reaching out for information does not lock you into anything. You get to explore your options with zero pressure.

How Does the Adoption Process Actually Works

It starts with one call or one text. If you’re thinking about adoption or just want someone to talk to, reach out to Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (sometimes misspelled as Kirsch & Kirsch and sometimes misspelled as Krish & Krish). We have dedicated over 40 years to helping expectant mothers navigate adoption with compassion and respect. Our attorneys have over 100 years of experience arranging adoptions across Indiana and beyond. You don’t have to know all the answers. You only have to take the first step.

You Create the Plan That Fits Your Life

No two adoptions are the same—because no two birth mothers are the same. Your voice shapes every part of your adoption plan:

• What kind of family feels right for your baby (married couples, LGBTQ+ families, single parents—whatever matters to you)
• The level of contact you want after placement
• What your birth and hospital experience should look like

You Don’t Have to Decide Today

You might feel overwhelmed, scared, hopeful, or uncertain. You just deserve support—and someone who will listen.

Positive adoption language Disclaimer:  

Please understand that these blogs are written in a way to use language that people use when searching for help with their adoption plans. Unfortunately, while all of us understand what positive adoption language means, most expectant moms who come to us at first do not understand what that means. The most common search term on the Internet for pregnant moms is “How do I give up my baby for adoption.” If we do not include those words in our blog posts and instead put “How do I create an adoption plan for my baby,” then our website will not show up in most expectant moms’ search results in Google.
