    Why You Need Your Own Attorney

    Usually, the adoptive parents have an attorney but the expectant parent doesn’t. We want to change that! Oftentimes, the expectant parent is usually advised about the law that governs her adoption by a social worker, or worse yet, by the attorney who represents the adoptive parents. While it may be true that the adoptive parents and expectant mother are working together toward a common goal, their legal rights and responsibilities are actually very different. Tune into this episode to learn why it's imperative that you have separate legal representation in the adoption process.

    Introducing Thinking About Adoption

    Introducing a new podcast just for expectant moms, hosted by AdoptMatch. Join Attorney Celeste Liversidge and birth mom and Policy Director Kelsey Vander Vliet Ranyard as they inform, educate, and tell the truth about domestic adoption. We started Thinking About Adoption in partnership with AdoptMatch in order to build a community of ethical adoption professionals  - adoption agencies and adoption attorneys who make sure that every expectant mom is informed, treated with respect, and supported in each adoption they handle. We want to preserve adoption as a safe and accessible option for women facing an unintended pregnancy. We can and must do better when it comes to protecting expectant parents, adoptive parents, and most importantly, adoptees whose lives are impacted by domestic adoption.
