About Jessica
Biography
Jessica C. Graves is a Tucson adoption attorney whose practice is devoted exclusively to adoption law. She has helped finalize over 1,000 adoptions for families across Tucson and Southern Arizona.
Adoption is personal for Jessica. She was adopted as an infant, and her two siblings were adopted as well, one from the foster care system. That experience shapes how she works with adoptive parents, birth parents and children.
Jessica represents families in stepparent, relative and grandparent, adult, foster care, and private and agency adoptions. She also represents birth parents who are considering placing a child for adoption.
Jessica earned her bachelor's degree, summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa, and her law degree from the University of Arizona, where she completed the Family and Juvenile Law Certificate. She is licensed to practice in Arizona.
