What Clients Are Saying About Gulf Coast Adoptions

Adoption is not an easy process emotionally but we were guided by true professionals in this field. It was fortunate that they understood the process with their own story. When you have individuals that have walked in your shoes, they are more equipped to prepare you for the journey ahead. Our family is now complete and we will be forever grateful! Our adoption changed and open doors we would have never expected. It was truly the best decision we have made in our life as a family. We wouldn’t trade that smile we wake up to everyday with gold. It has been almost a year since we meet them and we will continue to pray for their success in connecting other families in the future! We dealt with and spoke with a lot of agencies across the USA but they were the best choice! Most of those agencies made us feel like it was all about the money vs. changing a life of human beings. Gulf Coast wasn’t like that in which why we went with them. Our experience was priceless and we would do it over again. God Bless you Cheryl, Clay, and Zachary. The O. Family.

Courtney Brown

We had a great experience working with Clay and Cheryl at Gulf Coast. We were in a match for about 5 months. They were very attentive to us and to our birth mom. They are very intentional about making sure everyone is comfortable and they encourage the relationship formed in the adoption triad. We are still in contact with them and share updates!

I know Cheryl personally and referred a friend to Gulf Coast Adoptions. A match was found quickly and the adoption went forward. The whole process was completed in less than a year.

Gulf Coast Adoptions truly cares about the families and children it supports. Cheryl and Clay work tirelessly through every stage of the adoption process to ensure that their clients have excellent representation. Day or night, rain or shine, weekdays or weekends, they are working hard for their clients and the new families they are building.

Ryan

We are adoptive parents thanks to Gulf Coast Adoptions! We were working with consultants and were blessed to be matched with this agency. The whole process from traveling to finalization was seamless! The Gulf Coast Adoption team is so accommodating and easy to work with. Cheryl was so helpful and easy to reach. Even the judge at finalization mentioned how with Gulf Coast Adoptions everything is thorough and as it should be. That’s exactly what you want in an adoption attorney. We can’t recommend Gulf Coast Adoptions enough. We plan on working with them for our second adoption. Thank you GCA team.

Lauren

The adoption process is long and involved with so many challenges, expenses, and emotional events along the way. Choosing an agency to work with is such an important part of the process for both the mother and the adoptive parents. As prospective adoptive parents, we were so fortunate to have been introduced to Gulf Coast Adoptions by our consultant. Cheryl was our primary contact along the way and offered excellent communication, was responsive and organized, and seemed to genuinely care about the birth mother, child, and us. Our experiences across all key metrics; communication, process, costs, and follow-through were all as good as I’d hoped for. The outcome was a successful and smooth adoption from introduction to finalization and this was due in no small part to Gulf Coast Adoption’s contributions to the process. I strongly recommend them.

Thomas

Our experience with GCA, from start to finish, felt like we were joining a family. During our initial call with Clay, he shared his family’s adoption story with us, and it hit home that these people knew exactly what we were going through. We are so grateful they were our first call, I can’t imagine how our story would have changed if we had called someone else!

Sullivan

My husband and I have had a wonderful experience with both Cheryl and Clay at Golf Coast Adoptions. They were extremely easy to talk to and even went out of their way to connect with us at the hospital throughout our son’s NICU stay. Based on our experience, we would highly recommend Gulf Coast Adoptions.
