Adoptions – LGBTQ+ Parents

LGBTQ+ Parents

For years Jenny has been an advocate for all kinds of families, including adoptions and assisted reproduction by LGBTQ+ couples and individuals. She has helped many LGBTQ+ clients successfully build families through adoption and assisted reproduction. Given the Obergefell decision by the U.S. Supreme Court and subsequent policy changes adopted by Texas Vital Statistics, LGBTQ+ parents can now both be on their child’s birth certificate. However, a stepparent adoption or other parentage action may still be needed to legally establish a non-biological parent’s rights. Contact Jenny for a better understanding of how Texas law works in your specific situation.
