Comments from birth mothers

I am a mother who worked with Tara and Michael over 7 years ago. They have gone above and beyond to make sure they kept every word they promised, and helped me feel comfortable through the entire process. It's really hard when looking at adoption...but this group of people made it a great experience. I love the updates I receive each year, and they always make sure they get them to me.

Amanda

Great people working here. That's why I'm choosing them to help find the perfect couple for myself and my baby.

Tonya

My sister-in-law consulted your firm because she heard you guys were the best. She already has one child but was unable to financially raise a second. Her experience with the adoption process was very reassuring. Knowing her baby now has a loving family is a great feeling. She can grow up with parents who can give her the life she deserves. Thanks to you and your staff for being so great to work with.

Carolyn

As a mother who went through with adoption through Shorstein and Kelly, I HIGHLY recommend going through this agency for any person thinking about adoption!! This agency has completely changed my life in the utmost AMAZING way!!!! As a mother myself of 3 that have been put up for adoption, I could not ask or pray for a better agency to go through. All 3 of my children from ages 5 to only a few weeks old are all together with the same adoption parents!!:)

I called Shorstein and Kelly after my water broke and was in the hospital feeling very uneasy and worried about the future of my child. The next day they had their counselor at the hospital to talk to me and my options and plans.
