Effective April 20, 2026, Steven Bruce is no longer working at Bruce & Bruce, as he now works as a judicial officer for the Delaware County Courts.
That said, please reach out to us if you have questions about this change, or would like to talk to attorney Rebecca Bruce about an adoption, guardianship or related child-centered matter.

Bruce, Rebecca

Rebecca is an experienced adoption attorney who can help you navigate your adoption journey. She also may be able to help with other matters related to children, including those in the foster care system who need a permanent legal guardian. 

I am blessed by adoption in so many ways. My husband (and former law partner) and I have adopted 4 children (and fostered others). I have the privilege of having a law practice that is all about adoption. Over the years, I have helped many families adopt children, and have helped birth parents find loving homes for precious children. I have been doing this for enough years now that I sometimes find myself approached by a young adult when I’m out in the community who recognizes me from his or her “adoption day” photos. It is humbling, really, to be a part of something so wondrous. If you wish to discuss an adoption case, or if you hope to adopt a child or maybe even place your own child for adoption, or if you have a legal situation involving a child you love, feel free to reach out to me. While I do not handle divorces, contested child custody cases, or child support matters, I may be able to help in other situations.
