Step-parent adoption

Because of the high divorce rate, step-parent adoptions have become more common. Adoption petitions filed in probate court are normally approved when the non-custodial parent either consents to the adoption or is proven to have abandoned the child or children concerned.

The cases normally proceed through court fairly quickly and the client may be entitled to a tax credit for fees and court costs incurred.
