People often ask me what I like best about my job as an adoption attorney. Without hesitation, I always say, "When I receive that first Thank You card or Holiday Card with a photograph of the family that I in part helped create." I've done a lot of adoptions, yet every one of them is special to me. I can't think of another profession that would give me the same feeling I have once the papers for finalization are signed and I see the look on the adoptive parents' faces.
