SOMERVILLE, N.J., Dec. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ The law firm of Lyons & Associates, P.C. proudly announces that it has taken on a heartwarming case that shows the wonderful gift of adoption. Attorneys Mark T. Gabriel and Sara E. Kucsan will handle the adoption proceedings for the case pro bono.
The client, who is in her 30s and a parent of her own children, was raised by her stepfather from the time she was 11 years old. Though she was never formally adopted by her stepfather, she always considered him to be her "real father." In a gesture of gratitude for his decades of love and support for her, she reached out to the attorneys at Lyons & Associates for help in declaring him her legal father through the process of adoption. She plans to make this a surprise holiday gift to him.
Not knowing where to begin, the woman searched the web for an adoption attorney with whom she felt she could connect. After finding Lyons & Associates, P.C., and being drawn to its mission of "personal attention for personal matters," she visited the office without an appointment. She was welcomed by Attorney Mark Gabriel, who dropped everything to talk with her. Mr. Gabriel was so moved by her story, he brought the case directly to the office manager and managing partner, Attorney Theresa A. Lyons. Also touched by the woman's heartwarming gesture, Ms. Lyons suggested undertaking the case for free. Mr. Gabriel will be aided by Attorney Sara Kucsan, who has extensive experience as a Guardian ad Litem and with other adoptions.
