Attorneys
providing competent legal advice is important when working with birth
parents
to
insure
adoptive families understand laws regarding domestic, private and
independent
adoption placements and that birth parent consents are legally done
based
on the
state
the
child was born in and laws of Minnesota.
List
of recommended
attorneys in Minnesota
can
be provided
on request.
Child
referral
sources out of state should refer you to attorneys competent
to
represent
the birth parents.

Many Summit Adoption
Home
Study families also contact us when they learn directly of a birth mom
who may be considering them or have already chosen them to adopt
the child.
Many others work
with
a child referral source to match them with birth parent(s).

These
are many helpful web sites to locate the many,
many
domestic
adoption agencies for domestic, private and independent adoptions
who
can
provide child referral services to Minnesota families
with
a home
study from Summit Adoption Home Studies.
Always
check
references, legality, and legitimacy of the referral service
