Contested Adoption Campbell County

Three Sisters Stay in the Only Stable Home They Knew

A Campbell County couple raised three girls for years, one of them medically fragile. The birth mother refused to consent to adoption, so we took the case to trial and won.

The Case

A family friend and her husband from Campbell County, Kentucky, had raised three girls for several years, one of whom was medically fragile. Wanting to make sure the girls continued in a stable home, she hired us, and once they learned it was possible, she and her husband decided they wanted to adopt the girls.

The birth mother refused to consent to the adoption, so we took the case to trial.

The Result

After a couple of days of testimony, the judge sided with our clients and granted the adoption.

“Our family came to the Heinrich Firm during a really hard time in our family. The loss of my sister. We needed help with a contested adoption of my nephew. She and her staff was there for us through the whole process. She was confident from start to finish we had a good fight and the judge ruled in our favor.…”

Questions People Ask

Can a birth parent change their mind?

In Kentucky, a birth parent can revoke consent within 20 days of signing the voluntary termination of parental rights. After that 20-day period, consent is generally irrevocable except in cases of fraud or duress.

Do I need an attorney for adoption?

While not legally required in all cases, adoption involves complex legal procedures affecting lifelong relationships. An experienced adoption attorney ensures the process goes smoothly, protects everyone's rights, and prevents issues that could arise years later.
