Contested Adoption Completed!!
Mr Alcarese handled my contested adoption matter. He was on top of issues before I could even think to ask. He promptly answered my calls and kept me informed by cc:ing me on emails. His office was prepared and made sure every I was dotted and every t was crossed. He is very knowledgeable in the area of adoption law and now, thanks to him, we have a beautiful daughter. Family law is such a scary place to need a lawyer but boy am I glad we had this one. Highly highly recommend!
