Hi...........I thought I'd let you know how it worked for us....
1. Can we adopt an infant from anywhere in the USA or do you have a certain area you have to look into?
Our first aoption we stayd within our homestate, but for our second one we are searching throughout the country.
2. How long does the actual paperwork take?
We had to take 9 weeks of classes and I think everything was complete about a month after the classes ended.

3. Do I need a certain type of lawyer or none at all?
We used an attorney.........once you have your child, you don't want to take any chances(just my opinion)
4. Would I have to have all my fingerprinting and back ground checks done again although I just had it done last August for the daycare?
I also have a daycare but had to get fingerprinted etc again for our licensing agency.
