Severance

Severance or Termination in juvenile law refers to the legal termination of a biological parent’s rights, usually due to neglect, abandonment, abuse, or inability to provide a stable environment for the child. If these facts are present in your case, severance or termination might be in the child’s best interest. This step is essential to legally free a child for adoption, ensuring they can be placed in a safer, nurturing family. The process prioritizes the child’s best interests and involves thorough legal evaluation.

Adoption

Adoption legally establishes a parent-child relationship between a child and non-biological parents. It’s a comprehensive process involving home evaluations, legal paperwork, and court hearings to ensure the child’s well-being and the adoptive parents’ suitability. Adoption provides a stable, loving home for children whose biological parents cannot care for them and enriches families with a new member.
