Helping People Move Forward

AGENCY ADOPTION

An agency adoption is an attractive adoption option for birth parents wishing to put their children up for adoption and for families wishing to grow their families. Agencies are very good at finding children in need of families and matching them with parents who will give them a loving and nurturing home. Even when an agency is involved, there are legal matters that have to be addressed, making it very important to have a skilled Twin Cities adoption lawyer by your side.

This includes ensuring that termination of parental rights, background checks, and other necessary procedures are carried out as they should be. We can guide you through the entire process, protecting your rights while cutting down on delays as much as possible.

We will communicate with the agency when needed and make sure that everything is carried out accordingly. We will also communicate with you and answer questions that may come about throughout the process so that you are properly informed.

Straightforward And Ethical Representation

It is very important that the adoption process is carried out ethically. The goal of adoption is doing what is in the best interest of the child. This involves not pushing the boundaries of adoption law in unethical ways, which is the best way to interact with the system. Staying within the confines of the law and carrying out procedures the way they are supposed to be carried out can make a difference in the outcome.

Overall, we help you through the entire process. There will be decisions you will be faced with. Your Twin Cities adoption lawyer will review your choices with you and what they mean so that you know you are making the right choices.

LawPay Card Vault

LawPay’s Secured Credit Card Vault

LawPay’s Card Vault stores preferred payment methods in a secure vault. Card Vault and LawPay are 100% PCI compliant. This means it follows all industry and jurisdictional regulations, standards, and best practices.

There are two ways to store payment information: Add New Card or Request Card.

When the Add New Card method is used, the firm inputs the payment information received from a client over the phone. Note that Baker Vicchiollo Law does not accept or send credit card information via email due to security risks. The Request Card method is when the firm sends an email that includes a link which the client uses to input payment information themselves.

After the credit card or eCheck bank information is collected and vaulted, only the last four digits of the card and expiration date will be visible. The client is also able to input multiple payment methods such as a credit card and eCheck to have on file. As the client fills out the vault form, they’ll also be required to give the firm authorization to make charges, in accordance with the signed retainer agreement.

LawPay PCI Compliance

What is PCI compliance and why is it important?

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a set of security standards set in place by the major card brands (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and JCB). Its purpose is to ensure that all companies that accept, process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment to prevent this information from being stolen or compromised. The standard was originally adopted in 2006 and requires businesses to complete an annual compliance questionnaire regarding the way credit card information is handled in their office.

Is LawPay PCI certified?

Yes, LawPay is PCI DSS certified. ControlScan, a VISA Qualified Security Assessor, has independently audited LawPay and certified that LawPay is PCI DSS compliant. LawPay’s online portal is certified as a Level 1 Service Provider, the highest security level available.
