Re: out of state adoptions

I admire your desire and willingness to help this young girl. You will need to hire an attorney in Texas in or near the county where the original charges surfaced. You will also need to hire a lawyer in Georgia to assist in the placement, including home study. I have not idea about the details or the parents of the girl, but adoption is an idea far down the road. Right now, you need to handle the juvenile issues, conservatorship and placement. Good luck to you.
