Adopting a Child in Colorado

For families and individuals about to go through the adoption process in Colorado, it is essential to understand the requirements. Moreover, depending on the type of adoption you are pursuing, these requirements may differ.

For example, if you are seeking to adopt your spouse’s children, so you can expand your role as a parent, you will either need the consent of the child’s other parent or you can take the matter to court where a judge will decide if the other parent’s rights should be terminated.

We assist clients in a wide variety of adoption cases including the below: 

• Stepparent Adoption
• Adoption by a Family Member
• Legal Custody Adoption
• Confirmation Adoption
• Adult Adoption 

Securing the Best Interests of the Child

For most types of adoptions, regardless of whether your case is a contested adoption or an uncontested adoption, the Court will hold an evidentiary hearing to determine whether the adoption is in the best interests of the child.  Factors the Court will consider to determine whether to grant the adoption include the following:

• Relationship and connection between you and the child 
• Your moral character
• Your ability to financially support the child
• Your ability to help educate the child
• Suitability of your home
• The mental and physical health of the child
•  Whether the best interests of the child will be served by granting the adoption

It is important that you are able to understand the requirements and present to the Court sufficient information so that the Court can make the necessary findings to support granting the adoption. We provide knowledgeable counsel with experience to represent you in your adoption matter.

Bringing a child into your life is a major decision that can fulfill your life and the life of a child. You can trust in our team to help make it happen.
