Why Does Kirsh & Kirsh Give a Birth Mother The Option of Having Her Own Attorney? Is it Required And Counseling Required?

Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), want the birth mothers and expectant mothers whom they assist with adoptions to fully understand their rights and make the best possible decision for themselves and their unborn children. As experienced adoption professionals, Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh know that a pregnant woman thinking about giving her baby up for adoption will often make a better decision for herself and her child if she makes a decision based on good reasons rather than emotions. Counseling enables a mother to focus on her reasons and gives her the tools to keep her emotions in check. This is true whether she decides to parent her child or put the child up for adoption.

Similarly, as the attorneys for the adoptive parents, Kirsh & Kirsh is not allowed to give legal advice to the birth parents. Kirsh & Kirsh can and does explain adoption procedure and what to expect in the process but ethically cannot give legal advice.  Therefore, Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh always offer separate legal representation to expectant mothers and birth mothers, at the expense of the prospective adoptive parents. In other words, like counseling for birth mothers, legal representation is not required, but Kirsh & Kirsh makes it available, at no cost to them. 

If you have an unplanned pregnancy or an untimely pregnancy and are thinking about putting your baby up for adoption or, more correctly, making an adoption plan for your newborn or young baby, and would like more information about living expenses or to explore adoption, we, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh– or the “Kirsh Boys,” as the adoption attorneys at Kirsh & Kirsh are sometimes called – Steve, and his brothers, Joel and Rob, and his son, Grant, pride themselves on answering questions about adoption and explaining the process without pressure or judgment.

POSITIVE ADOPTION LANGUAGE DISCLAIMER:  Please understand that these blog posts 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 that come to us at first do not understand what that means. The most common search term on the Internet for expectant 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 mom’s search results in Google.
