Can a notary public legalize an adoption or does it have to be taken before the court?
A Notary Public in the United States can not "legalize" documents. A document that is illegal prior to notarization will still be illegal after notarization. A notary only confirms that the document signer executed the document willingly and, if applicable, that the signer took an oath as to the truthfulness of the claims made in the document. A notary can not grant a legal change in status of any kind (except marital status, in those few states which allow notaries to solemnize marriage). Notaries can not grant divorces, adoptions, name changes, or other judgments of any kind. In all U.S. jurisdictions, such matters must be heard before a court of competent jurisdiction and be decided by a judge.
