jdmorris...there is no reason for you to be treated in a rude manner...you are only asking for information. Most sealed records states have a means for adoptees to gain non-identifying info.

I would complain to the clerk of the court about the manner in which you were treated, and ask for information on how you can obtain the info you are seeking.

Adoption courts have their own way of reviewing the adoptee info. Some require you to write, others have a form, etc. The clerk of the court will know what the procedure is and how you can get it.

At this point there is no reason for you to seek attorney legal advice until you know if you can obtain the non-identifying info with out petitioning the court. If you are required to petition the court, you can decide about the attorney.

I wish you the best.
