Rialto Adoption Attorneys

Every adoption will need the help of an experienced Rialto adoption lawyer in order to complete the required legal process. This attorney will ensure that everyone is being fairly advocated for and fully understands each legal step as it happens.

When you partner with American Adoptions, you’ll be referred to a local attorney, so you don’t have to worry about finding your own and coordinating with them yourself. If, however, you’re working with a different Rialto adoption agency for placement services, you’ll likely need to find your own attorney. Here are some local professionals who may be able to represent you for the adoption:

Rialto Home Study Providers

Anyone who wishes to adopt a child must first complete the home study process before they’re cleared to continue. This important pre-adoptive step assesses the family’s readiness to welcome a child through adoption, including their physical, financial, mental and emotional preparedness. This is meant to ensure that children are placed into loving, safe, and ready homes.

American Adoptions is a licensed home study provider in the state of California. We have streamlined the process to save you time and money – allowing you to focus on the next step of your adoption process. Follow this link to begin your home study and to learn more about the services we offer

Rialto Foster Care Professionals

Thinking about becoming a foster parent or adopting a child through foster care? This is a wonderful way to grow a family, but American Adoptions is unable to provide foster care services. We can, however, point you to local professionals who are licensed to help with this type of adoption, including:

Rialto International Adoption Agencies

International placements continue to decline, but some families still have their hearts set on this path. They’ll need to work with an agency that is licensed to place children across national borders. The nearest such agency to Rialto is:

Rialto Hospitals

Women who are pregnant and partnering with American Adoptions will be asked about a lot of different preferences they might have — including where they’d like to receive medical care leading up to and for their delivery. Your American Adoptions specialist will walk you through these types of choices to create a personal birth plan.

Some nearby options you might consider incorporating into that birth plan include:

Rialto Courts

A Rialto family that has recently received placement of a new child must complete a series of post-placement requirements and follow-ups over a few months. Then, they’ll have their adoption finalization hearing scheduled in San Bernardino County court. This hearing is short and simple — the judge issues the final decree of adoption, and the last legal step of the process is complete.

Visiting Rialto

Birth and adoptive families, along with their child, will often spend some amount of time together whenever an adoption placement takes place in Rialto. You may meet one another here before or during placement, and you may spend time in Rialto for future open adoption visits or ICPC clearance.

Rialto is a small community, but there are still a few nearby places to explore together during your time here:
