Step Parent Adoption

We're here to help you build the family you've dreamed of. Talk To Us 24/7 - Indiana law firm providing adoption services similar to an adoption agency

If you have a child or children and would like your husband, wife, or significant other to become their legal parent, the legal process is step parent adoption or second parent adoption. It can be accomplished with or without the consent of the other biological or legal parent, depending upon the circumstances.

Over the last 40 years, Joel Kirsh has assisted with many step parent and second parent adoptions and would be happy to explain the procedure and answer all of your questions, without cost or obligation.

Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C.

We are an Indiana based adoption law firm with more than 40 years of excellent service and 100+ years of combined legal experience arranging adoptions.Awarded the United States Congressional “Angels in Adoption” Award in 2005, a special recognition by the Indiana General Assembly in 2006, and the “Sagamore of the Wabash” by the Governor of Indiana in 2022, for his continuing efforts to improve adoptions in Indiana, attorney Steve Kirsh, along with his brothers, Joel Kirsh and Rob Kirsh, and his son, Grant Kirsh, have built the law practice around the human needs of our clients and not simply the “transactional” nature of filing papers and providing documentation. We welcome questions from expectant mothers and birth mothers who want to learn more about giving up a baby for adoption, or, more correctly, making an adoption plan for a baby, without pressure, judgment, cost, or obligation. In other words, talking to us does not mean they ever have to talk with us again.
