Adoption Law

Diane Johnson, herself an adoptive parent, understands the complex legal and emotional issues surrounding adoption. Courts, social workers and other stakeholders can affect the process by which birth parents relinquish their rights and adoptive parents add a child or children to their family.

Diane provides skilled, compassionate guidance to clients involved in an adoption process.

“I will never forget the emotions I experienced when I was going through the process of adopting my own sons. There are powerful feelings on both sides of any adoption – ranging from excitement to anxiety. Could something go wrong? Will everyone’s hopes be realized? Working with a compassionate attorney is especially important at a time like this.”
