Do you need a lawyer to adopt your step kids?
That is something I would really recommend to you because at its essence, an adoption, whether through a private or public agency is a court process and using a lawyer would ease the process tremendously. It is becoming more common for parents to remarry and have their new spouse adopt their child from a previous relationship. In order for a stepparent to adopt, he or she will need the written consent of the other biological parent. If this consent is denied, the stepparent must petition the court to terminate the parental rights of the biological parent.
