Michael A. Shorstein and Brian T. Kelly are one of the first attorneys in the state of Florida to become Board Certified in adoption law by the Florida Bar.
There are only 18 board certified adoption attorneys in the state, three that practice in Duval County, including Shorstein and Kelly. These board certified attorneys are the only Florida lawyers allowed to identify or advertise themselves as specialists or experts in the field of adoption law. |
|
|
|
| Adoption law board certification provides a necessary and important protection for birth mothers and adoptive parents. It distinguishes attorneys who have special knowledge, skills and proficiency in adoption law along with superior professionalism and ethics in their practice. Certification is the highest level of evaluation by The Florida Bar.
The certification of adoption attorneys also allows the public to differentiate those attorneys who are expertly skilled in the area of adoption law from lawyers who do not understand the unique complexities of the adoption statute. Florida adoption laws have changed almost every year over the last decade, and what once was a simpler, form-based process now requires an experienced, specialized, intuitive approach to the complicated statutory framework. Board certified adoption attorneys are experts in this area and, as such, are thoroughly conversant with the adoption statute.
