Adoption traces in Ireland

If you were born in Ireland and adopted, you know the difficulties and stress involved with tracing your natural parent/s, but EII are the foremost investigation agency in Ireland dealing with Adoption therefore you can be assured of utmost discretion and confidentiality.

For all adopted people in adoptions where information about the family of origin is withheld, secrecy may disrupt the process of forming an identity. Family concerns regarding genealogy can be a source of confusion. Another common concern is the lack of a medical history, which can affect the adopted person and also his/her subsequent children.

Many adoptees need to know the identity of their natural parent/s and want to know "where they came from". Some adoptees trace their natural parent/s in order to obtain medical information.

Adoptees often need answers! adoptees often report that they were told they were "special" or "your mother gave you to us because she loved you", but soon became aware that in closed adoptions, the adoptive parent/s and the legal system may both assume that the birth parent/s no longer wish to see the child. This leads some adopted people to wonder whether their natural parent/s ever loved them, or whether their adoptive parents can be trusted to tell the truth.

EII can conduct enquiries on your behalf, we can do as little or as much as you request us. We keep in contact with you to update you on any new developments. Once we have traced your parent/s we will ask your further directions, if you wish to engage us we can contact your birth parent/s on you behalf or even deliver your messages or photographs. The choice is always yours.

Many Adoptees ask us, " what is the difference between a skip trace and an adoption trace?"

When we undertake an Adoption trace we don't just find your parent, we also undertake a background investigation. Your report will tell you who lives with them, how many children they have, their parents names, what they work at etc, so its more than just a trace.
