For our first adoption, we filed the finalization papers and went to court by ourselves. We purchased the instructions to do it all on our own from our agency (instructions were prepared by an attorney).
This time we are doing an independent adoption so we will use an attorney from the beginning. Our attorney charges a flat fee (around $3,600) for the finalization and an hourly fee for all the rest leading up to finalization.
