Adoption is a complex process and can be highly emotional for all involved. The complexity can be increased if you are adopting from another country.
While the Scottish authorities will carry out the same checks as when you are adopting in the UK, there may be extra hurdles due to differences in policy. For example, the country you are adopting from may have rules regarding marital status, age, or sexuality that may restrict who can adopt. When adopting abroad additional costs may be considered, such as when you visit you will need to pay for travel and accommodation expenses, there might be additional administration fees, which could lead to police checks, medical assessments and interviews.
It is important to discuss this with adoption solicitors in the UK, who will be able to help make the adoption process proceed smoothly.
Our team of adoption panel solicitors are part of the family law department at Jones Whyte, which has dealt with a wide variety of cases.
