Navigating interstate adoption, especially during an unprecedented pandemic was complex, to say the least. But, we had thorough, dedicated, around the clock care and support in our case worker and the entire organization. The follow through, even after our placement, has been a welcome relief and we are so grateful for the talented, compassionate ally we found in Amy Nickerson.

From the owner: The first step in fulfilling that mission, Heart of Adoptions, Inc employs a staff that is…read morepassionate about adoption. From our office manager greeting everyone entering the front door, to the attorney that takes a birth mother's consent or finalizes your adoption, you will be surrounded with dedicated professionals that believe in dignity and respect, regardless of situation or choices. We strive to make every adoption experience the best it can be. Heart of Adoptions, Inc was created in 2001 by attorney Jeanne T. Tate. Jeanne Tate created her agency after practicing law many years at another large firm. Jeanne found adoption law so gratifying, that it became her sole concentration and professional mission in life. Jeanne aspired to create an agency with unyielding dedication to the highest standards of professionalism, ethics, and competence. The satisfaction of helping people start or grow their family through adoption has remained a powerful influence and motivation for Jeanne. Her desire to create the best agency in Florida has allowed for the opening of several satellite offices with experienced staff serving the entire State. Heart of Adoptions, Inc is committed to ensuring adoptions are legally sound, while also providing personalized services. This commitment has made us a highly respected agency with numerous grateful clients. Please visit our testimonial page to see what others have to say .

Heart of Adoptions, Inc. guided us through the adoption process, from bringing us together with our…read morenewborn son all the way to finalizing our adoption. After four and a half years of waiting for an adoption placement, we couldn't help but feel a lot of anxiety mixed in with all our hope. Amy is an amazing social worker and was always quick to respond to calls, texts, and emails. She gave us so much peace of mind as we went through all the steps of adopting our little baby boy and answered our many questions with patience and grace. Right away, Amy processed all the basic information that the state of Florida needed to approve our home study and talked us through the steps Florida does in adoptions. Once Amy cleared us to fly from Illinois to Florida, she connected us to Gift of Adoption, an organization that helped us with adoption expenses through a grant. She started calling our little baby by the name we had picked out for him even though we hadn't been physically present to sign anything yet, and it warmed our hearts that she was eager to prove to us that the connection was real and that we were really going to be parents at last. It is plain to see that she has a real heart for adoptive families and wants to make the connections happen as smoothly as possible. Amy went above and beyond by checking in with our little guy at the hospital and picking him up when he was discharged, meeting us at her office, which was closer to where we were staying. She cared for him while she waited for us to navigate through traffic and even swaddled him up in a blanket and beanie just to do a quick photo shoot before readying him for his car seat. We adore those pictures and appreciate all the love and care she showed our son as he waited for us to arrive. The Heart of Adoptions, Inc. agency had steps and paperwork so streamlined that we were often surprised by how quickly everything was processed. Amy was able to use prior experience with Illinois agencies to anticipate any problems or questions they might have, so she had our ICPC coordinated and approved in less than a week, and we were able to travel home with our son much sooner than we ever expected. Heart of Adoptions coordinated well with our Illinois social worker for follow-up visits and information, and the law offices of Jeanne T. Tate that work with Heart of Adoptions did a great job taking over the next steps and walking us through to finalization. When our case was closed, Amy made sure we knew all the details of our account, had everything processed according to our wishes, and included a ledger for tax purposes. We can look back and reflect that Heart of Adoptions, Inc. has done an excellent job of making everything in our adoption process go smoothly, and it is thanks to the hard work of social workers like Amy and her team that we have become parents for our darling little boy.

I am so thankful that we saved this beautiful kitten. Please, when you visit a shelter be sure to pay attention to the shy and timid cats as well as the outgoing ones!

When only the best will do…read more..... Unfortunately, divorces are a common byproduct of our modern living and blended extended families. When I was served with divorce papers I was lucky to have an attorney recommend Lisa P. Kirby, in Naples, FL, to navigate me through the difficult legal process. My divorce was complex in that it was a bicoastal filing in Florida while I resided in California. We had properties in both states as well as a host of other legal issues that needed to be addressed. Lisa's incomparable knowledge of the family law courts is amazing. She was able to outline the proper strategy with realistic expectations all while keeping me apprised of all the details throughout the preliminary stages. This was especially important since I did not actually meet Lisa until the day before trial. Lisa's trial demeanor is brilliant as it reveled her character and integrity. She skillfully covered each point and is well versed in case law, which she used throughout the trial. However, we were wholly ruled against by the trial Judge, The Honorable Joseph G. Foster, and Lisa was quick to say that we should appeal to the Second District Court. Thanks to her confidence and legal expertise we were successful in the Appellate Court with a reversal on a key property issue. The resulting ruling, Nelson v. Nelson, 189 So.3d 788 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2016) is now apart of the Florida Case Law and has been written up in dozens of legal publications. This case is now used as the benchmark for family law and trust attorneys throughout the state. This process took 2.5 years to complete. I would not have traversed this legal maze successfully without the steadfast support of Lisa P. Kirby, the finest family law attorney in southern Florida.
