Adoption 90%

Our goal at Heimer Law is to help families adopt. An Arkansas adoption, at its most basic level, is a legal process. However, anyone considering adoption understands that it is an emotional, spiritual, and relational process too. We can help!

Guardianship 10%

All families are unique. Children are often raised by a loving friend or family member instead of mom or dad. In these cases, a child may be best served through the establishment of a legal guardian. A guardian is responsible for the child in a manner similar to a parent, both as the custodian of the child’s property and as the child’s caretaker.

Kind, Compassionate, Thoroughly Knowledgeable

My husband and I are seeking to adopt a child, and we contacted Adoption Arkansas for a consultation. I spoke with them this morning, and Justin Heimer is the most valuable resource we’ve found, to date. I’ve never had any agency take the time to fully explain all aspects of domestic adoption the way... he did. I thought I was already pretty knowledgeable, but I feel so much more prepared for this after this consultation. We’re now waiting for availability.

Excellent experience

We worked with Justin for the successful adoption of a beautiful child. I can't speak highly enough of the experience. When you work with Justin, you know that because he's an AAAA fellow, you are getting a lawyer committed to ethical adoptive processes that respect every party. We wanted to respect ...our child's first mother, and he helped us do that in a way that will benefit her and our family. His office is clear about the fee schedule up front and screens clients to make sure everyone knows what they are getting into before signing. While his office itself seems a bit overwhelmed at time with work, I never had a problem contacting him personally. He was available throughout the process for questions, even sometimes when he was on vacation. Last but not least, he seems to enjoy his job, which really helps give you confidence when you're talking about the wellbeing of children.

Professional and Personal

We used Heimer Law for both of our adoptions. When we met with Justin he was up front and honest with us about what to expect and he walked us through the process. He was professional in how he handled the legal matters that surround adoption and personal to handle the emotions that come along with... adoption. If anyone I know, is even thinking about adoption, I ALWAYS referred to Justin and his team.

Thanks for saying this Kristin! I really enjoyed working with you on both adoptions and am honored to have played a role in building your beautiful family.

Very family oriented

Heimer law facilitated our step parent adoption. He was very accommodating to the fact that our daughter only knew my husband as her dad and not a step parent he was careful not to confuse her on that fact. They got us taken care of within a few weeks and it was quick and painless. They are in the bu...siness of helping families!

I am so glad we could make your husband the legal daddy that he deserved to be. I wish you all the best!

Great Adoption Experience

Justin first consulted with us regarding our adoption questions. Later he became our adoption lawyer and made the process easier by quickly and clearly answering our questions. He is very personable and approachable.
