[b][Greenwood Village, May 4, 2016][/b] – Divorce Matters provides legal assistance to clients who wish to adopt children domestically or internationally. They offer advice on how to go through the steps of legally adopting a child within Colorado or from abroad.

[b]Child Adoptions in Colorado[/b]

Divorce Matters has thorough knowledge of child adoption laws in Colorado. Anyone over the age of 21 may choose to adopt, provided that the client meets the requirements of the state to be eligible for adopting a child. Divorce Matters walks the client through the complex process from beginning to end.

In Colorado, domestic adoptions have to go through either a private adoption agency or the county human services department. Prospective adoptive parents will complete parenting classes or home studies. They will also be subject to family assessments.

Parents wanting to adopt must undergo a background check, receiving clearance from both the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

To complete the adoption, all the necessary paperwork must be filled up, followed by the obtaining of a new birth certificate for the adopted child. The team at Divorce Matters assists and advises their clients throughout the entire process.

[b]International Adoptions[/b]

International adoptions are subject to even stricter regulations. Depending on the child’s country of origin, clients may expect to complete the adoption process within one to four years, or possibly longer should complications arise. Divorce Matters assists clients in completing all the necessary requirements, which includes background checks, assessments, and the U.S. immigration process for the adoptee.

The adoption process, whether domestic or international, is a complex process that requires a full understanding of state and federal family laws. Prospective adoptive parents can expect complete legal assistance from the team at Divorce Matters.
