At Brisbane Family Law Centre, our Queensland adoption lawyers are legal practitioners with expertise in family law and adoption. We assist our clients with single parent adoption, the adoption of a stepchild or assistance with adopting a child from overseas.
What is Adoption?
Adoption is a process whereby a person assumes the parenting and responsibility of a child, from that child’s biological or legal parent or parents. There are specific adoption laws in Queensland around the various types of adoption.
Stepparent adoption exists when a stepchild is adopted by their stepparent.
International adoption is the adoption by which a couple becomes the legal and permanent carer of a child born in another country.
Finally, you can have single parent adoption and the adoption by a same sex couple and these kinds of adoptions can of course occur within any of the above scenarios.
