We oversee the foreign adoption process and insure that all additional requirements of the U.S. State Department are met to get your adopted child home SAFELY. For many years Guatemala was the most popular country for adoptions in this hemisphere. In 2007 around 5,000 children were adopted from there. Because of new United Nations requirement, no adoptions were begun in 2008. It is unknown if or when adoptions from Guatemala will resume. Countries where adoptions may be done now are El Salvadore, Nicaragua, Panama, Columbia and Venezuela. Although not quite as easy as the Guatemalan adoptions were once, adoptions from these countries usually can be completed within a year. Email for specifics for each country. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/1601498446688-1KPFGJ0ZNQY3HHH210IF/adoption1.jpg Adoption Services - Domestic/US Adoptions We can handle your Texas adoption personally.

Because of my work with Somos Iguales, a 501c3 non-profit that I created, I have contacts and skills at locating birth mothers in even the most remote regions of Guatemala. With the growing popularity of open adoptions, there is always the opportunity for birth mother and child to have contact in the future from those who have previously adopted from Guatemala. This is a better way to allow contact with the birth mother without further stressing her fragile economic situation. https://www.loelcoleman.com/international-adoption daily 0.75 2020-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/1601501677747-NWMBKBGRJ1DJH5YXDDRZ/birthmother1.jpg International Adoption - As a result of the United Nations Hague Convention on Inter-Country adoptions, international adoptions have been all but halted. In a few non – Hague signatory countries, adoption is possible but lengthy waiting periods are required. For more on the current situation please go to this link. One exception seems to be Ethiopia which has an adoption procedure that is fairly quick and standard. We can still complete an inter-country adoption, but the problems created by the UN Hague Convention must be taken into account by those undertaking one. https://www.loelcoleman.com/about daily 0.75 2025-02-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/43f51f89-cc6f-4afb-b423-0f35e047e785/headhsot+striped+tie.JPG About - Experience Since the mid 1990’s I have been in real estate and property management as well as learning the ins and outs of the international adoption process. I have negotiated numerous purchase, sales and lease contracts – including Oil, Gas and Mineral Leases –more often than not getting terms superior to other similar deals. I created a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to giving more opportunities to women in Guatemala. I have also been involved in the purchase and import of the crafts of these women for sale on the internet and at festivals. A brief synopsis of my experience - In the 1980’s -Creator and General Manager Paradise Saloon live entertainment venue in the Houston market. -Executive Director of Alamo Carriage Company, a tourist-based company also in Houston. 1990’s -Staff manager-trainer/ community organizer/ campaign director for environmental NGO Clean Water Action Project, Information Office Director for the environmental/ human rights NGO Rainforest Action Network, served as International Peace Observer in Mexico for the human rights NGO Global Exchange. I did extensive independent travel throughout Mexico, Central and South America, participating in numerous human rights and environmental protection efforts in those places and in the U.S. Late 1990’s - early 2000’s - Personal representative managing estate properties with $1M+ assets involving numerous contract negotiations, real estate transactions, oil/gas/mineral leases, and other significant matters. During all decades until present - multi-role player, freelance legal advisor for numerous persons and entities including a company that owns at times up to 24 McDonald’s outlets and an individual who invested in Austin real estate in the 1960’s and 70’s who is beginning to reap the rewards of those investments now. Further details provided upon request. I have also created a 501c3 non-profit – Somos Iguales – dedicated to educating less privileged girls and women in the world to afford them more learning and earning opportunities. Through my work with Somos Iguales I have gained first hand knowledge of the desperate plight of people of many parts of the world, especially in Guatemala. High infant mortality rates, abject poverty, malnutrition and widespread illiteracy are some of the factors that led me into becoming involved in handling inter-country adoptions from Guatemala. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/1635594575204-TOYYBGYOJC57L01U68A3/WIN_20211028_15_12_14_Pro.jpg About - Education Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

After the Guatemalan adoptions ended, I discovered that there was an interest by some adoptive parents and kids who were adopted in searching for and locating the birth mother or parents. There are various reasons adoptive parents want to learn about the biological family. Many adoptive parents are now interested in having what is known as an open adoption, where the adoptive parents seek out the birth mother of their adopted child, allowing the child to be aware of and have pride in their cultural identity and where appropriate, permitting contact between the child and biological mother. Others just want to have knowledge of health and genetic information on the family and to obtain relevant family history information . Some children who were adopted over the past few decades also want to find birth parents for a variety of reasons. Some are just curious to know more about their heritage. Others seek to have unanswered questions resolved. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/1601498621275-GLY9L1ZI5OY4WNSZ91DF/adoption2.jpg Birth Mother Search Services - Make it stand out Loel Coleman with kids https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/113096b8-9f05-42d1-a801-2de7ba0e4b55/oly.jpg Birth Mother Search Services - Make it stand out Oliva Cleotilde Lopéz Peréz https://www.loelcoleman.com/legal-services daily 0.75 2025-02-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/030f4fd1-8ea6-46e7-afa8-e79daa1ed38d/Tulum_Banner.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/ee20c8bc-4bd2-47d8-b114-b8c54cfeebaf/website2.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74da0bc7b8a2360e676c35/8496d221-df78-43bc-b1f6-030e4e40b25f/beach.jfif https://www.loelcoleman.com/contact daily 0.75 2020-09-30 https://www.loelcoleman.com/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2020-10-19 https://www.loelcoleman.com/new-page daily 0.75 2024-02-21
