(I would have done zero stars, but it is not allowed.)
This lawyer, Michael Shorstein, along with Brian T. Kelly of Jacksonville forced me to sign papers against my will while I was in the hospital. They work with Kathleen Stevens of First Coast Adoption Professionals. Here is the comment I wrote for them.
Kathleen Stevens (First Coast Adoption Professionals) and Michael Shorstein (of Shorstein & Kelly) came into my hospital room after sending me paperwork and pamphlets. (The page with the "birth mother's" rights was missing.) They came the day after my daughter was born. (I have the medical records with the dates). I had repeatedly said that I wanted to keep and raise my daughter, however, they refused to leave. It was the day after I had given birth to my daughter, who I was not allowed to see up until this point. After hours of making me feel like I was incapable of raising her, they reviewed all of my paperwork. I was on many medications and not in my best condition to deal with such things. It was only after they promised me that I would still be a part of my daughter's life (open adoption) that I signed the papers. However, since then, the adoption was closed, as I found out later that open adoption is not legally enforceable in any state. Also, the paperwork was post dated, and there were two dates written on all of my paperwork.
These are horrible people to have around you in a vulnerable state as a pregnant woman. They will not take "I want to raise my daughter" for an answer. I had had no prior contact with this agency prior to going into the hospital.
I also found out, years later, that my daughter's pediatrician was related to one of the workers in the agency, and I believe this is how they found me. I was on medicaid, and had an out of state license, and was thus, easy prey.
