Intrafamily adoptions, drafted from the statute up
WHAT IT HANDLES
Adoptions are not all the same. Ayla knows this and adjusts in real time.
Art. 1243
Petitioner Standing
Ayla follows the law in helping you determine who does and does not have standing to petition for an intrafamily adoption. Standing depends not only on the relationship but also on several custodial elements and timelines that must be followed, depending on the circumstances.
Art. 1244 - 1245
Parental Consent
Each parent's status is resolved separately: by consent through an authentic act, or by the support and communication grounds for dispensing with it. Ayla will walk you through the available options.
Art. 1243(B)(2) & 1244(B) —(C)
Catching Exceptions
Not every adoption is handled in the same fashion. Who is involved in the adoption determines the rules that apply and the exceptions available.
Arts. 1244. 1248—1249, 1253
Deadlines you can see
Depending on the circumstances, there are different timelines that apply to intrafamily adoptions. Ayla helps you navigate the different timelines.
Art. 1244 - 1245
Document Assembly
Ayla drafts the intrafamily adoption documents that you need in a fraction of the time. Whether you require a petition, authentic act, judgment, or consent, Ayla has you covered.

Adoptions join the divorce, custody, support, and community property forms that Louisiana family lawyers already run in Ayla. The same guided interview drafts the forms you need for the matter at hand.
