Walking With Us Through Heartbreak and Joy

We couldn't say enough good things about Families by Adoption LLC, especially Lori Horst. Lori walked alongside us through both a disrupted adoption and the successful adoption of our daughter with incredible grace, compassion, and professionalism. During one of the most difficult seasons of our l...ives, Lori was patient, kind, and supportive. She guided us through the heartbreak of a disruption with honesty, encouragement, and genuine care. When the time came for our adoption journey to continue, she was there every step of the way, helping us navigate the process with confidence and peace of mind. Lori handled every detail with integrity, transparency, and a deep respect for everyone involved. She was always available to answer questions, explain the next steps, and provide reassurance when we needed it most. It was clear throughout our journey that she truly cares about the families she serves and views adoption as much more than just a profession. We are incredibly grateful for Lori's guidance and support in helping us bring our daughter home. We highly recommend Lori Horst and Families by Adoption LLC to anyone considering adoption. Having her by your side throughout the journey is truly a blessing.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
