Know the Law

U.S. Adoption law is state law and is not the same in every state. The same holds for Canadian provinces. Know the laws relevant to release of identifying and non-identifying information for the state where the adoption was finalized. For a summary of U.S. laws, check our summaries of state search laws. For provincial information, check the Canadian search information pages.
