“We had a wonderful experience with using Rebecca Bruce for the adoption of our two children out of Dcs this last year. It was a very long process, from start to finish it was over a year long and she walked us through every step of the process. Her paralegal was very professional and knowledgeable and if we had a question that she did not know the answer to, she would set us up with a phone conversation with Rebecca. We do not have a single complaint in hiring Rebecca and we would highly recommend her. Also, from a financial standpoint, she lowers her fees to reflect what Dcs would charge and so we did not pay anything out of pocket to adopt our children! She has done DCS adoptions hundreds of times and was very familiar with all the steps and information. We had a great experience.”

I had to hire Bruce & Bruce after paying over $4k for another attorney who took my money and did almost nothing for our case. We didn’t have long before the final 2 court dates from the time I hired them, and they still got everything we needed done. They’re miracle workers!”
