Maryland and Washington, D.C. Adoption Attorney & Estate Planning Lawyer Sheri A. Mullikin
Building Families Through Adoption in Maryland / D.C. and Protecting Their Futures

Welcome!  
As an adoptive mother and experienced adoption attorney​, Sheri Mullikin has focused her practice exclusively on helping expectant parents, hopeful adoptive parents, foster parents, and children with adoptions and their estate planning needs throughout Maryland and the District of Columbia since 2009. While her offices are conveniently located in central Maryland, in Mt. Airy, which is also known as the four county area of Carroll, Frederick, Howard, and Montgomery counties, Sheri provides adoption services throughout the entire Maryland and Washington, D.C. area.  

Adoption 

The adoption process can be stressful and emotionally overwhelming at times because decisions made may forever impact the future of all involved.   It is important that your attorney understands your concerns and has the ability to guide you skillfully through the adoption process. Sheri not only has years of legal experience as a adoption attorney representing adoptive parents, birth parents, and children, but she also knows what it is like to sit on both sides of the table -- as a potential adoptive mom and as the attorney. She has experienced first-hand the joys and devastation that many adoptive parents go through in trying to build their families.  She knows what it feels like to put your hopes and dreams in someone else’s hands and to become part of a process that is often out of your control.  That personal connection provides Sheri with a unique perspective and fuels her passion for her work, making her a zealous advocate for her clients.  

Whether you are a hopeful adoptive parent just starting your adoption journey, a stepparent or relative hoping to adopt, or an expectant parent considering an adoption plan for your child, Sheri will help you explore all of your options.  Sheri provides the following adoption services:  
  • ​Adoptions through the foster care system
  • Private or independent infant adoptions
  • Finalization of adoptions through domestic adoption agencies
  • ​International adoptions -- finalization and readoptions
  • ​Stepparent, grandparent, relative, or other adoptions
  • Adult adoptions  
  • Representation of an expectant parent considering an adoption plan 

Sheri is committed to providing personalized, client-centered representation. Sheri will do everything possible to make herself available 24 hours a day, everyday, to assist your needs.  If you would like to learn more about adoption in Maryland and Washington, D.C., contact Sheri today for a consultation.

Estate planning services​

As an accomplished estate planning attorney, Sheri can also help you make an estate plan to provide for your loved ones on your death or should you become incapacitated, by helping you develop a comprehensive estate plan including a will, trust, advance directive or living will, and a power of attorney.  A sound estate plan will protect your loved ones because you can designate guardians for your minor children, establish trusts for the benefit of your children, and ensure that special gifts to friends, other relatives, or favorite charities are completed upon your death.  An estate plan is also an important tool to preserve your assets and to avoid probate.  She has been assisting individuals and families throughout Maryland to complete their estate plans since 2008. Contact Maryland Estate Planning Attorney, Sheri A. Mullikin today for more information and to obtain an estate planning questionnaire to begin the process.
