Amazing Attorney

My wife and I used Hank Finesilver for the adoption of my our, Mitch. My late wife passed away and my new wife of 4 years wanted to adopt Mitch to make him officially her son. Mr. Finesilver handled everything with expertise. He was completely prepared and everything went flawless in a relatively ...short amount of time. He made what we thought would be a stressful process go very smoothly. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a family law/divorce attorney.
