Stepparent Adoption Intake Questionnaire

Stepparent Adoption Intake Questionnaire
Please complete this intake so we can prepare the adoption petition and the Virginia VS-21 Report of Adoption.
As a family law practice, we always prefer to put a face with a name. If you would like, share the photo of yourself that you like most. It can be of just you, or of you with your child or children. This is completely optional.
Share a photo of yourself (optional)

One photo, JPG or PNG. A clear, upright photo of your face works best.
