You have asked two different questions, one pertaining to a direct placement adoption and one pertaining to custody. The standards for adoption vs. custody are different, although the best interests of the child governs in both. There are statutory requirements which must be met in each situation. You need far more advice, particularly regarding adoption, than one can provide based upon the information you provided. If I can be of assistance, I would be happy to schedule a consultation with you at your convenience. Sincerely, Monica Chernin, [email protected]
