Denise J. Patton

Denise is awesome! There are many ups and downs through the adoption process & many unknowns. However, the one area we had no concerns and very low stress was the legal stuff and that is because of Denise. She is thorough, responsive, and truly takes care of everything! She provided services for both... of our adoptions and we have friends that have used her as well with the same result. She is a trusted advisor.

Denise is a very experienced lawyer and she has explained clearly the steps in the re-adoption process. Helped us along the way to fill out forms and communicated through email and over the phone promptly. We have to go to the court only one time and she took care of the rest of the paper work . We w...ill definitely use Denise in future and we will strongly recommend her to our friends and family.

Denise helped us re-adopt our children from China in 2013 and 2015. She was very communicative, knowledgeable, helpful and kind throughout the process. She did a great job letting us know what steps needed to be taken and what the expected time to completion would be. She also helped us in the proces...s of our second adoption clarifying with our social worker what the requirements are regarding visas, citizenship and re-adoption when only one parent travels. We highly recommend Denise.

Denise did an excellent job with our contested step parent adoption case! She was extremely knowledgable and thorough catching every little detail possible. She has great relationships and is highly respected with judges and other attorneys and helped us get our adoption finalized really fast! I woul...d highly recommend Denise as the best adoption attorney in the area she will give you her full on attention and work diligently until the job is complete and you complete your family :)

So glad I hired Denise for our adoption case. She was the most informative, knowledgeable and diligent attorney I have ever encountered. She made the entire process smooth and explained everything in detail answering all questions promptly. She truly cared about my family and getting the job done qu...ickly. Unlike most attorneys who just want to take all your money her interest was in our family. I believe Her background as a dcfs worker Made her knowledge on child laws much more extensive. Hands down best adoption attorney around !!
