Just got a call from an old client. Their daughter is 13 and a star student & athlete at her school. It is these calls that make my day. No matter what else happens today, knowing this teenager is doing great is enough. I intend to kiss the wife and both dogs tonight with just a little more joy in my step.
Today the Supreme Court of the United States is hearing an ICWA case out of South Carolina. The fate of a three year little girl rest with these nine jurists. Does Veronica stay with her biological father or return to her adoptive parents? The SCOTUS decision is expected in June.

Just ran into an old client. We recognized each other right away. Twenty-two years after the fact. It was great to catch up. Her daughter is going to medical school. Her son into the Marine Corps. It's such a rush to hear these positive stories of how well adopted children are doing.

Adoption is more than a career.

I heard of an interesting case out of New Jersey today. The New Jersey Supreme Court held that prenatal drug use by a mother was not a basis for finding child abuse or neglect. There needs to be evidence that there is imminent danger to the child or actual evidence of harm to the child.

I hope this frees up more children for direct private placements adoptions without involvement by a social service department bent on fostering.

I read about two interesting cases recently. They are not both adoption cases but have implications to the adoption field.

The first one is EX PARTE HOPE ELISABETH ANKROM, an Alabama case dealing with the offense of chemical endangerment of a child. The Supreme Court held that " offense of chemical endangerment of a child , includes unborn children." it is my understanding the child lived 19 minutes.

With addiction being a problem in the adoption field , testing of birth mother candidates is extremely important. If the birth mother tests positive are the lawyers...
Adoption Day in Los Angeles County, the best! I have three adoption finalizations set for this morning. Three very happy families. Adoption Finalization Day is an important day. Today all the stress is over.

The Judge usually asks me to do a card trick or two which makes adoption more Magical.
To all you adoptive parents out there, the Federal tax legislation allows for a tax credit for adoption expenses incurred in 2013. The maximum tax credit is $12,970 Those with a modified adjusted gross income of $194,580 or less qualify for the full credit. The amount of the credit graduates downward to zero as incomes approach $234,580.

This will help to make the magic that is adoption more affordable for more prospective adopting families..

International Adoption Process

The international adoption process has the potential to be very complicated, so we believe that the first step in the international adoption process is to choose an adoption attorney. An adoption attorney will help you to comprehend both domestic and international adoption customs so you aren't left in the dark. There's a myth that the adoption process for adopting internationally is much quicker and waiting families are able to meet their baby a lot sooner than with domestic adoptions.

This couldn't be further from the truth. Each adoption is different, whether it be domestic or international. You may endure a lengthy international adoption process, but another set of adoptive parents may experience a lengthy domestic adoption. Every adoption is unique and the time frame will be somewhat different from each one.

To begin, depending on which adoption agency you are working with, you may be able to choose which country you would like to adopt from. This is great for families with a cultural background linked to another country. Maybe the adoptive parents have grandparents from Asia, or relatives from Poland. Depending on which country you are adopting from, you may experience a shorter or longer adoption process.

Please feel free to contact Radis Adoptions for more information about our international adoption assistance.
