Adoption & Guardianship
Adoption & Guardianship
Building and protecting your family.
04.2 — Overview
Whether you are adopting a child into your family, establishing paternity, or arranging guardianship for an at-risk adult, Gray & Palmer handles the advice and paperwork the court requires.
Under Maine law, a child's adoptive or biological parents are their natural guardians until age 18, responsible for care, custody, and support. We also assist with guardianship and conservatorship arrangements for adults who, due to age or disability, need someone to help manage their affairs — now or as part of planning ahead.
