Adoption Petition Draft

Draft a petition for adoption of a child under (a) the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act 1956 (HAMA — applies where both adoptive parents and the adopted child are Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, or Sikh) or (b) the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act 2015 read with the Adoption Regulations 2022 framed under it (applies regardless of the religion of the parties — the secular, CARA-mediated route, for orphan / abandoned / surrendered children). Drafts the petition with the parties' eligibility under the applicable statute, the welfare-of-the-child basis, the absence of consideration (HAMA Section 17 prohibits payment), and the prayer. Auto-fires on "draft adoption", "draft HAMA adoption", "draft JJ Act adoption", "draft adoption petition", and similar trigger phrases.
