How Adoption Attorneys in Indiana Help Make the Adoption Process Easier

Two pink lines. A positive test. A moment that changes everything. Maybe you whispered “no” out loud. Maybe your hands started shaking. Maybe you felt a hundred emotions crash into you all at once: fear, shock, love, confusion, hope, panic. 

Somewhere in that storm, a question surfaces: What about placing my baby for adoption? Then comes the guilt. The shame. The voice that says, “Would that make me a bad person? Would I be giving up?” Let’s stop right there. There are adoption attorneys in Indiana ready to support you.

Adoption Isn’t About Giving Up—It’s About Showing Up

Adoption is not the easy way out. It’s one of the most complex decisions a birthmother can make. It’s not giving up. If you’re even considering adoption, you’re already thinking about what’s best for your baby. Isn’t that what good mothers do – do what’s best for their children? 

You Have More Power Than You Think

Indiana law gives you real control, not just over whether adoption happens, but over how it happens. Here’s what that actually looks like:

You choose the family. You get to meet prospective families (virtually or in person), ask them questions, see their home, and decide who feels right for you. If someone doesn’t feel right, you keep looking. 

You design the adoption plan. Want to stay in touch with your child through photos and letters? You can create an open adoption. Need more distance? Semi-open or closed adoptions are options, too. Want the adoptive parents in the delivery room, or do you want that time with just your baby? Your call.

You get real support. Free counseling before, during, and after. Help with pregnancy-related expenses like rent, food, medical bills, and maternity clothes—for up to six weeks after birth. 

You can change your mind. Until you sign that consent form after birth, nothing is final. You can walk away at any point. Even reaching out to learn more doesn’t commit you to anything.

Here’s How It Actually Works

One call. One text. That’s all it takes to start getting answers. Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (sometimes misspelled as “Kirsch & Kirsch” or “Krish & Krish”) has been walking alongside women through this decision for over 40 years. A family-run law firm with more than a century of combined experience helping birth mothers across Indiana, Michigan, Tennessee, Illinois, Mississippi, and Kentucky.

You Build Your Plan 

Every adoption is as unique as the woman making the plan. You decide:

• What kind of family feels right (married couples, single parents, LGBTQ+ families—whatever matters to you)
• How much contact do you want after placement
• What your hospital experience should look like 

This is your plan. We just help you make it real.

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.
