By Aiden ArmstrongYou are gay and you know that there still exists a lot of discrimination for you as a lesbian. You are legally married to your spouse and now you want her to adopt your new born baby. The attorney you consulted with last week was not all sympathetic to the details of your situation as an LGBT couple.
You now realize that in order to get the help you need to complete the adoption process, to make your baby a legal member of your family, that you will need help from a Chicago LGBT lawyer that will stand with you to fight for what is right for both of you and of course the baby you both love.
You are looking for a firm that specifically calls attention to their work on behalf of lesbian couples. You deserve the same rights as straight couples because you are a legal couple, but somehow this process can be much harder for gay couples.
You have asked around to some of your gay social circle and since you are among the first of your group to have a baby you don’t find the help you need for a Chicago LGBT lawyer.
Someone you work with has come out to you because you too are gay, a fact not known to all. She has told you that she and her wife were in this same situation and they, after searching for the right law firm, found one firm that was exactly what she was looking and which would be able to help you too.
