Erica Tate Healey

We found The Erica Healey and The Law Offices of Jeanne T. Tate while in the process of adopting a baby. Due to unforeseen circumstances it became quite evident that the attorney assigned to us by our adoption agency was not going to be able to support us competently. After a great deal of research ...and interviewing multiple attorneys in the Tampa area, it became abundantly clear that that only the team at Jeanne T. Tate had the knowledge, passion and experience to support us. Every step of the way in our adoption journey with JT Tate we felt they were as invested and passionate about my family having a positive adoption as we were. No matter what they were always there for us. Quick to respond, proactive in their actions and we never felt we were a burden. These are all challenges we had with our previous council. We ended up in a very tough situation and had to go before a judge multiple times. Our attorney's superior knowledge and application of Florida adoption law consistently procured positive judgements in our favor and brought our adoption to a successful finalization. After 18 months of litigation our family is complete and that which would have ended in devastating heart break came to a conclusion of joy and love. With all my heart I do not believe any other law firm could have brought us here. Working with an attorney who specializes in adoption law is important. Working with THE BEST team who not only specialize in adoption law but are passionate and experienced is critical.

My wife and I live in CA and adopted our daughter in FL in 2018. The team did an amazing job holding our hand through the process, helping us get our documents sorted, and most importantly assuring us every step of the way to close our adoption. Four months after we met our little girl, the adoptio...n closed. We could not be more satisfied with the level of service provided.

Working with Jeanne T. Tate, P.A. and the Heart of Adoption was a nothing but a wonderful, easy, and amazing experience. From our first phone call to their office to post adoption we knew that we not only went with the best choice, but also gained a family. They helped us with adoption of both of chi...ldren that took place at different times. Jeanne T. Tate, P.A.'s staff guided us through a private adoption and a state adoption, through the foster care system. We can honestly say that they guided us through both our adoptions and they were always there for us. They pushed appeals onto the judges desk and did whatever it took get our adoptions finalized. No question was a silly one and patiently explained everything to us. We are forever thankful to the professional, kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable, caring, and loving staff at Jeanne T. Tate, P.A. and Heart of Adoptions. Thank you Jeanne T. Tate, P.A. and Heart of Adoptions for helping to complete our FOREVER FAMILY!!

In working with Erica and all staff on our sons recent step-parent adoption, we found that it was more like working with a family member or a friend. The personal touch and genuine care they had for our situation was beyond words. From the initial paperwork to the adoption hearing, we were thoroughl...y informed of not only what to expect but also what we needed to do in the process. No surprises! Thank you both so very much!
