Bucholz Law

My husband and I had a great experience with John Buchholz as our attorney/lawyer. He was very knowledgeable and experienced with the adoption process. He made the whole experience incredibly smooth and easy. He answered all of our questions in a timely manner and was very organized. He was also very reasonably priced. I highly recommend him!

When our family began the process for our second domestic infant adoption, I contacted several lawyers. Mr. John Buchholz stood out from the group. From the first conversation, it was apparent that he had a strong understanding of adoption law. He answered all of my questions and laid out the process in clear and easy to understand language. His fees are very straightforward and reasonable. Once we were officially working with him, he always responded quickly to phone calls/emails and kept the process moving while also respecting our communication and situation with our baby's birth family. John Buchholz was both approachable and professional the entire way through. I plan to recommend John as an attorney to other families I know that are hoping to adopt.

Every adoption is unique and we were amazed how efficiently John investigated new changes in law for our unusual adoption case. He fully explained all required forms and each stage of the process. We highly recommend John Buchholz as an adoption lawyer.

I've only worked with a few lawyers in my life, this was my first time working with an adoption lawyer, I'm very happy to have found John Buchholz. He explained everything thoroughly and was always there to help when we needed it. Thanks to John I was able to adopt my two step sons. Thank you so much for all your help.

John Buchholz is an excellent lawyer. He made sure that the process for both of our second-parent adoptions (2 kids, 2 years apart) was as smooth as possible. He also completed our wills and power of attorney documents and we are very happy with them. Each time we spoke with him over the phone or in person he answered all of our questions and explained all of the legal jargon thoroughly. He is very knowledgeable, especially about how the law pertains to same-sex families, like ours, and other queer families. John is also personable. It's apparently that he loves helping families get the legal protections they need. He even came to the hospital when both of our children were born so we could sign the adoption paperwork and get it submitted to the courts that same day. (We didn't want any delay in the adoption on our part.) John also doesn't have hidden fees. He is honest and upfront about costs, which are reasonable. My partner and I would recommend John to anyone needing a good lawyer.
