Adoption for Family Lawyers by Graham Pegg

We are delighted to report that Graham Pegg has a new book out: 'Practical Guide to Adoption for Family Lawyers.'

Graham is a consultant solicitor within our firm's Children law team representing children, parents, prospective parents and clinics in public and private law cases with a special emphasis on care, adoption and surrogacy matters.

This practical guide covers the range of processes in the Courts of England and Wales and in Local Authorities and other Adoption Agencies that relate to the adoption of UK children.

'There are very few court orders that actually change who a person is but an adoption order does just that.there can be no greater intrusion into family life by the state than for a court to make a placement order paving the way to the child ceasing to be a member of one family and, at a stroke, belonging to another.'

The book is available from Law Brief Publishing www.lawbriefpublishing.com.
