People throughout Utah have trusted the legal team at Just Law with their guardianship and stepparent adoption issues, because we have a reputation for obtaining the best possible outcome for our clients in a cost-efficient manner. We have experience helping families protect their children, and making their emotional bonds legal and permanent through termination of parental rights and adoption.
A stepparent adoption totally severs the legal relationship between the noncustodial parent and the child. This is important because it ensures the child will be able to receive any of the stepparent's death or retirement benefits, inheritance and other benefits.
Just Law attorneys have comprehensive knowledge of the Utah adoption process and significant experience resolving cases of stepparent adoptions with, or without, consent of the noncustodial birth parent.
Salt Lake City Guardianship Attorney
Guardianships are a method of securing legal custody or decision-making authority over a person who is determined to be unable to make decisions on his or her own behalf. Guardianships can be appropriate in instances involving:
- Minor children
- Disabled adults
- Elderly persons
- Mentally ill persons
- Physically incapacitated persons
- Spendthrifts
Creating a guardianship can be a document-intensive process, and it can involve complex legal issues. Our attorneys have in-depth knowledge of the system and the guardianship procedure helps to control legal costs, as well as the amount of time it takes to establish a guardianship.
