I can't speak highly enough of Susan and Janet who helped me through what I believed to be an overwhelming process. From the very first phone call, they were compassionate and understanding, offering reassurance and support every step of the way. Their knowledge of Florida adoption law was extensive, and they explained every detail to me clearly, making sure I was fully informed at all times. Janet frequently reminded that no question was silly and reassured me that they were both there to help answer. What truly stood out was their trustworthiness and professionalism. I knew I my family was in the best hands, and they proved that time and time again, going above and beyond to make sure the process was smooth and successful. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I was able to adopt my daughter. I couldn’t recommend Susan and Janet more highly for anyone looking for an adoption lawyer who truly cares about their clients.

Susan and her team are sensitive to the whole case and have heart and professionalism in all they do. I would trust her with any situation I would have. She knows her field and has the personal experience to back what she does. She has heart but will fight hard for her clients. I would recommend her to anyone. They can't go wrong with Susan and her team!

I am thankful to have Susan Stockham as my attorney for my newborn adoption. The process went very smoothly and professionally. She totally guided the whole process and made sure the adoption finalized on time - even amid the Covid-19 crisis! I would definitely hire her again.

She did an excellent job! I talked to both Susan and her assistant alot. We were adopting our niece with the biological moms approval. It should of been a simple task but we ran into a couple of bumps in the road, thanks to the biological dad who has never been in the picture. Between Susan and her awesome assistant, they gave us lots of updates, information, and assurances that they were doing everything they could to help us out. The adoption process is stressful and can be scary if your having to fight another for custody. But having Susan and her assistant made things alot easier. I would definitely recommend using them for your service needs! Thanks again you guys are awesome!

I cannot say enough positive comments about Susan L Stockham and everyone I interacted with in her office during the process of the adoption. She is professional , extremely efficient in getting all of the legal matters handled and is very genuine in her communication with family as well. It was so refreshing to feel very well taken care of, on a personal and professional level.

We were looking for an adult adoption and had to do a lot of searching before we found out about Susan Stockham. She and her staff were wonderful and we couldn't have been happier with the services.

Susan and her team were amazing during our recent adoption experience. They navigate emotionally charged situations with calm and wisdom. Susan was so ethical in how she handled both the expectant family and the adoptive family making everyone feel heard and cared for.

Susan Stockham and her staff were nothing short of amazing during our adoption process. We were out of state with a preemie in the NICU and she was excellent! She was honest yet very reassuring and fact oriented. We could not have been in better hands!

Susan was an excellent choice for my family. She not only handled the legal portion of the adoption with expertise and professionalism, but she also genuinely cares about the family and child in question. Great experience overall and I would highly recommend.
