As a military family stationed in Texas with home of record in Arkansa, our adoption case involved multiple states and even international elements, which made the process more complex than a typical adoption. From filing the initial petition to handling the various consent and, our attorney made the entire process feel manageable. There were a few minor hiccups along the way, but given the complexity of our case, they were expected and handled professionally. He kept us informed, answered our questions promptly, and guided us through every step with patience and expertise. By adoption day, everything was in place, and the process felt remarkably smooth.

Anyone needing an adoption lawyer, found the best one ever! Chuck is patient and kind, he is very knowledgeable, and makes you laugh when he can tell you are feeling anxious. Chuck prayed for us and made himself available by text or call any time during the day or night. I couldn't have had a better experience. We truly appreciate him.

Chuck was so helpful with my step-son's adoption. He always responded quickly when I had a question. The adoption went smoothly once we had all of our paperwork together. We are so happy to finally have our family legally together.

We had a wonderful experience working with Chuck. My daughter was adopted by my husband, her stepfather. Chuck was always just a call or text away and responded quickly any time we reached out. I would highly recommend using his services. It was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end.

I highly recommend Chuck for any adoption case! I suddenly had the opportunity to adopt my step-son and Chuck instantly took the case and managed to get all papers signed in less than a week. He also managed to get us a hearing speedily (in literally less than a week from when we filed). He was super respectful and answered all of my questions and explained everything to me!
