Adoption - Interstate | Kinship - Grateful

I adopted my niece's baby. I had an interstate, high risk pregnancy, kinship adoption, and I didn't know where to begin. I didn't know anything about adoption or lawyers, and google searches on my kind of adoption weren't answering certain questions. I talked to an adoption lawyer in Texas (my state)..., and that didn't feel right. Based on advice from a friend at church, I found a lawyer in the state of my child's birth, Judy Sartain. And once I spoke to her and her team, I realized I was on the right path. ICPC regulations and interstate adoption made things complicated, and Judy and her team helped me navigate the requirements and legalities, including helping me with my niece signing off and giving me custody when we left the hospital after the birth. Judy talks to you like she's known you forever, and she was sweet to my niece during the delicate conversation at the hospital. I had questions throughout the process, and Judy and her team answered them. Getting ICPC approvals from both Georgia and Texas, Judy and her team got me and the baby back home in time for Christmas. The adoption was finalized soon after. I look back, and I know I would have been lost in the process, if it wasn't for Judy and her team. I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you.

Excellent and Passionate Attorney

Judy Sartain has given us what previous attorneys said was impossible, the adoption of our 3 children. We had a complicated case and had been in the court system for 10 years fighting for custody. At the end of our rope, we went to Judy Sartain and her team. She listened, she understood all the compl...exities, and with her wit and vast knowledge gave us a true hope that she could finally give us the adoption we had prayed for. I cannot give her and her team a high enough review. In our times of doubt, we would pray, read her reviews and know that if anyone could do it, Judy could... and she did! She is an amazingly talented attorney and we could feel her passion for our adoption case, which made all the difference. If you want to win your case, go to Judy Sartain and her professional team!

Very Competent

Judy came recommended to me by a friend and she helped me work through a very frustrating family court to get custody of my grandchild. Judy definitely knows her law field and I was thankful for her knowledge and ability to read the judge and know how to maneuver in working through our case in court.... Her team responded to me quickly when we communicated and they worked together to make sure I was set for court. I would hire Judy again in the future.
