Reasons for Adoption

The most common adoption in Rhode Island is cooperative in nature, where all parties agree on the results. On the other hand, there are several common grounds to grant a “contested” adoption. For example, whether a parent is abusive, has abandoned a child, or has failed to pay meaningful support for a child for several months is also relevant.

Adoption is a life-changing event and should not be left to an inexperienced attorney. Attorney Moyer and our family law team can fight for your best interests.
