What is Adoption Decree?
Decree of Adoption is the Adoption Order by the Court that establishes the new paternity relationships and affirms any name changes that will be effective. The Order legally establishes the official parent-child relationship between the adoptive parents and the adopted child, as though the child were born as the biological child of the adoptive parent(s).
