Pls what of the divorce issue. How can I prepare the adoption writing address.
Good morning Igunbor,
Preparing to adopt the final written address is the same procedure as adopting any final written address. Though in most Courts, most judges would allow you or expect you to adumbrate on your address. The content of the final written address would however be different from the samples we have provided in this blog post.
Hope the above helps.
Thanks and apologies for the late reply
