Adoption records in California are available to the adoptee who is age 21 or older, the birth parent of an adult adoptee, and in some circumstances, the adoptive parent of an adoptee who is under age 21. | |||
An adult adoptee, 21 or older, may obtain identifying information on their birth parents if the birth parents have provided written consent to have the information released. The birth parents may request identifying information on the adult adoptee, age 21 or older, if the adoptee has given written consent to have the information released. <ref>Adoption.com [http://laws.adoption.com/statutes/california-laws.html California Laws]</ref> | |||
