Some may remember... in 2007 a little Dominican girls, barely dressed, barely 6 years old wandered into my life and eventually into my heart. A typical "de criancia"... the fine way to say "ditched" from one dysfunctional family into another... used by a Coastal SankyPanky "family" as their private "Cinderella" .
I had to beg for them to allow me to school the girl (which they said, was to dumb for that), fight their "Tigueraje" and repeated attacks and sabotaging actions.
The mother... well, I won't elaborate... but 3 years ago, at least I could persuade her to leave the girl with me, to which she agreed if I took up her older sister too.
Over 2 years ago, the mother left to the US.
Anyways... she is 13 now, calls me "Papa" and has been a loving child known to my other kids. Her sister is 15 and has asked me if she could call me likewise a year ago. They are great are school and everywhere I go, people make compliments about how well behaved and loving they are.
I recently married. Hey, I've been living here almost 8 years and chosen C A R E F U L L Y .
I NEED to formalize the relationship with the two girls. I have to travel to the US en Europe often and I think they ought to be part of some of the trips.
I understand that in principle, it is said that under DR law one can not adopt a particular child, a child is assigned to adoption instead. But I know that people have been able to legally adopt children they knew and specifically wished to adopt.
I am looking for a REPUTED lawyer (his work will be scrutinized by my personal lawyers here in the US and here in the DR!) who is SPECIALIZED and has a SUCCESS track record in adoption maters.
Please PM.
If you feel compelled to opine about what I am doing, please FIRST do a SEARCH about me and what I have posted about her in 2007 thru 2010:

I will ask to delete any dumb and/or unappropriated comments, since there are kids involved.
If you don't know me from my past history on here (2007 and up) or personally, and you have questions about my person, pleas PM and I will be happy to answer.
Thanks! ... J-D.
