Joel David Kirsh

We highly recommend Attorney Joel Kirsh when seeking Grandparent Adoption. He is extremely knowledgeable about adoption laws and the entire process. He is compassionate, courteous and truly a down to earth individual who cares about your family. His assistant, Chrystal, worked diligently wit...h our family through our time together. She never failed to answer our calls , send e-mails and encourage us along the journey. Now that our grandson is adopted, we have such peace knowing this is his forever home. He is now safe and loved beyond measure and our beloved son. We thank Mr. Kirsh and Chrystal and staff who worked faithfully on our behalf to help[ make our heart's desire become a reality.

We contacted Kirsh & Kirsh for a consult regarding stepparent adoption. We were connected with Joel and his paralegal Crystal. We had many questions and concerns along with being nervous and scared going into the process. Joel never one time pressured us to make a decision on moving forward and made ...us feel very comfortable. He was easily accessible for communicating with us, and was beyond patient and kind with us during the entire process. After speaking with Joel a few times we felt we trusted putting our family into his hands and we decided to hire and move forward with the adoption process. He made us feel confident in our decisions given his expertise and expereince with adoption law. Joel is so honest and straight forward with his thoughts and opinions on the case, which we really appreciated. He never made us feel like he was just trying to just "get our business”. Joel does not make you feel like you are just a client, he is truly concerned and invested in the best interest of your family. His paralegal Crystal is great also. She is very knowledgable about the process and wonderful to talk to. She is so sweet, and she was always quick to reply and helpful with any questions and/or concerns we had. She is a true asset to Joel and the Kirsh & Kirsh family. The whole process was made as easy as possible for us by Joel and Crystal. They are truly amazing at the work they do, and they are forever hero’s to our family! We have ZERO complaints in our expereince with Joel, Crystal, and Kirsh & Kirsh. We are so thankful that we reached out to Kirsh & Kirsh!

Joel Kirsh and Crystal Palmer made this adoption experience professional and positive all the way to the end. The constant communication put us at ease and we truly felt like we knew everything that was happening throughout the process. Everything Joel told us would happen did and we could not be mo...re happy and excited how everything turned out for our family and daughter. Thank you so much!

Joel, I want to thank you for your assistance with my recent adult adoption. Deanna (Dee) and I both received numerous types of legal advice from other agencies and attorneys, both here in Indiana and in New York. Nobody’s advice was consistent, almost as if they weren’t qualified to offer guidanc...e or didn’t take time to perform research regarding our desired situation. Everything seemed so complicated, confusing, and inconvenient for both of us until our first discussion with you. Starting with that moment you made everything so easy. The process actually turned out to be very simple and relatively quick. I also want to recognize Crystal Palmer for being very prompt and reliable in our communications leading up to the adoption day. Dee and I express our highest gratitude to both of you in helping make for a tremendous and extremely memorable "Gotcha Day." Thanks again to Crystal and you! Regards. Brian C.

Our family had a wonderful experience with Kirsh and Kirsh. From the start of the process to the very end everything was professional, smooth, and clear and we had the utmost confidence going into court to finalize the adoption. Joel was perfect on the court date. If any of the families that day had ...pre court anxiety, he swept that away. Joel brought everyone together and you knew exactly what was going to happen. We saw nothing but humor, curtesy, kindness, patience, and experience that day. We cant say thank you enough!
