Barbara Thornell Ginn

Barbara and her team were simply wonderful to work with. Adoption is a new horizon for many of us, and it takes a certain level of compassion and expertise to navigate the journey while feeling safe and informed throughout the process. Barbara and her team provided that and more! From our first inter...action to the adoption finalization, we knew we were in good hands and we can only hope future experiences go as well as ours did. Can't recommend their services enough!

I cannot recommend Barbara Ginn and her team enough. Barbara was extremely knowledgeable and helpful through our entire adoption process. Her kind words, and being just an email or phone call away was so nice when it felt like I had no idea what to do or what was happening. If I ever require represen...tation again she will be my first choice without question. Thank you Barbara and Foster+Bloom for helping give me and my husband our family.

We had been through a tumultuous approval process before getting to the the actual adoption process so we assumed it would be more of the same. From the moment we engaged, everything was smooth, fast and efficient! It took less than 3 weeks from start to finish and I couldn't be more pleased! I abso...lutely recommend this practice for your adoption needs.

In early 2021, I made one of my best decisions ever in retaining Barbara Thornell Ginn's law firm to represent me in the adoption of my stepson, whose life I entered in 2015 and whom I had raised since he was 18 months old. Barbara was assigned to my case at the time and guided my wife and I throu...gh all of our available options from day one. Mine was a very complicated case as there was pending litigation involving my wife, the child's mother, outside of Florida that had yet to be resolved. Barbara was able to confer with our out-of-state lawyer who had been retained three years prior to represent my wife in that matter. She never missed a beat. She and our out-of-state lawyer colloborated and conferred regularly, developing a very effective approach in the best interests of the child. One of the many issues in dispute involved jurisdiction over the child and the two, semi-conflicting cases. Ultimately, the two involved judges conferred and agreed with Barbara's approach. After two years of due diligence, coordination, hard work, and extraordinary legal acumen by Barbara and her firm, I was awarded the adoption of MY son (who is now nine years old) in late February. As mentioned, the hiring of Barbara was an excellent decision, and I could not be more pleased with her and her firm's representation throughout the entire process. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone seeking an adoption here in Florida. I am forever indebted to her for her excellent service!
