Amira Sarah Trattner Hasenbush

Amira and her office were wonderful to work with. We have used their services for two second-parent adoptions and both have gone seamlessly. The entire team was attentive, communicative, and quick. I have already recommended Amira and her team to a few friends with kids. We are very happy to have wo...rked with such a professional and know our family is protected should anything change with the country's laws for LGBTQ families.

Amira was very helpful not only in reviewing our egg donor contract, but also guiding us through our first steps to surrogacy. We are a same sex couple who decided to have children through surrogacy. Originally, we had planned to hire Amira to take care of all the legal work for our surrogacy (drafti...ng and reviewing contracts, parentage, etc.), but our surrogacy agency insisted that we use their legal team. Even then, Amira was very responsive, patient, and understanding. She consistently got back to us quickly and took time to explain anything we were unclear on. We would definately reach out to hire her in the future if we ever need.

Amira worked on the adoption of my daughter by her stepdad, and we couldn't have been more pleased. She was very communicative and organized and made the whole process so much easier. We appreciated her professionalism and would recommend her to anyone that is seeking a qualified and dependable attor...ney to help in their family matters. This was an important moment in our lives, and we were so happy to have Amira walk us through it.

My spouse and I are happy and very satisfied with the services we received from Amira and her team. We found them to be approachable, caring, informative, and prompt. Prior to reaching out to Amira, we hit a couple of roadblocks in finding an attorney that could provide us answers to whether or no...t it was a good decision for me to take the extra step to formally adopt my daughter. Even though my spouse and I are married, and I am named as a parent on our daughter’s birth certificate we wanted to secure my parental rights at the federal level due to the political climate appearing unstable. In our search for a lawyer to help us, we came across a few that told us that we are protected. We also came across a non-existent protocol for same-sex couples to submit the second parent adoption paperwork. Still feeling uneasy with the answers we were getting we continued our search. Thankfully, we were able to find Amira via Connecting Rainbows. Reaching out to her and going through the intake process was the best decision. Overall, the process was simple, welcoming, and we immediately felt comfortable. Thank you, Amira for helping us!
