STEP-PARENT ADOPTIONS
Our office prides itself in the efficient processing of step-parent adoptions anywhere in Ontario. We will assist you and your spouse with the completion of all of the necessary court forms, work with you in obtaining all of the necessary consents to the adoption, and finalize all arrangements with your local Court.
Step-parent adoptions often involve the consents of previous partners/spouses. If this person should not be willing to provide a consent, or it is not available, we will be able to assist you with making application to dispense with the consent.
As part of the step-parent adoption, we will further assist you in changing the name of the child that is being adopted and the registration of the new name with the Registrar General of Ontario.
Please contact either Ted or Karin if you should have further questions about Step-parent Adoptions, or if you would like to set up an appointment to discuss your particular case.
