need help in stepparent adoption
I am needing help on how to start adoption process. My children are 12 and soon to be 10 in July and I have been with my husband for nine years and they have not seen their bf in over 5 years. I don't know how to locate him or any relatives. My daughters are wanting the same last name that I have along with a son I have by my husband and we have another child due in December. I live in Dallas County and I have contacted several attorneys and they are charging $3000-$5000. Can I file with the courts on my own? If so.. does anyone know how to begin the process?
