Best in Colorado

We hired Seth to assist us in adopting our daughter from Hawaii. She is marshallese. We had heard he is the best in colorado particularly with our situation. I was very pleased with how promptly and efficiently everything was handled. Both Seth and his assistant were very easy to work with and would ...get back to any emails within 24 hours. Usually less than 3 hours. Once, when my kids were all asleep in the car i called and asked the paralegal if she could meet me at the car for some paperwork and she did! They understand and value your time and family.

Extremely helpful with our dual-state complicated surrogacy

I found Seth online and chose him based on high reviews and years of experience. I live in NC but my surrogate lives in Colorado and I needed someone to help us through our complicated situation because we failed to prepare ourselves legally prior to conception. Seth was able to answer our many que...stions, give us options on how to best proceed with the legal work for our surrogacy, and even provided assistance when additional matters came up through the hospital and local DSS after the birth of our son. Thanks to Seth and his paralegal Ondine, we were able to bring our baby home to NC in a matter of days with ease. Each interaction we had was pleasant and professional and we appreciate everything they did for us during the process.

An Honest, Efficient, Responsive Attorney

I consulted with Seth for my consideration of relinquishing parental rights of my adopted children. I first e-mailed him, and he was very quick and responsive, although it was understandable that he could not discuss in details via e-mail. I called to schedule a consultation, and was surprised that h...e answered the phone. It was refreshing to have an attorney so accessible. He told me he would have a meeting in a few minutes and had me talk with his assistant. She was very friendly and tried to schedule me as soon as possible. Then, when I called later, Seth again answered the phone. Before the consultation, he had gone through the information I provided him earlier. He then gave me a thorough introduction of the process. He made very honest and realistic analysis that my case would be very difficult (nearly impossible). He was not condescending as some reviews mentioned. I found him informative, efficient, and looking out for my best interest. He addressed my questions (I had many) in a very efficient, easy to understand fashion. I never once felt that he tried to promise the world or to convince me to retain him. Unlike many people who instantly become judgmental when they hear adoptive parents relinquishing parental rights, he was not judgmental at all and was matter of fact. I was very comfortable talking with him. I appreciate his honesty. I will certainly go to him in the future if I need help related to adoption matters.

Highly Recommended Adoption Lawyer

Seth was a breath of fresh air when others could not handle our challenging case. He is absolutely the best adoption lawyer out there. I could not recommend him more highly. He was available and answered our questions compassionately and intelligently and even met with us the same day our adoptio...n case went awry. We now have a beautiful new baby in our family, and without Seth I'm not sure the outcome would have been the same. Even if our case had not turned out, I would have highly recommend Seth!. His office staff and partner, Tim, are also phenomenal. They are easy to talk to and have the experience and knowledge to put your mind at ease.

Was there every step of the adoption process.

I met Seth Grob back in January. I was interested in adoption. As with most adoptions mine had unique circumstances. Seth set my expectations from day 1, stayed in contact with me, put me in contact with other people that helped with the process, and ultimately completed the adoption. Seth is k...nowledgeable, easy to contact, and experienced. I honestly couldn't have done this without him.
