Question do I need a lawyer?

My husband wants to adopt my four year old son. Do I need a lawyer or if its uncontested (I hope) can we go without one. If so how do we do that? His BF has never paid any child support and has only visited him for two months over two years ago. Does he autamatically loose his parental rights after so long without contact or support for the child. He only lives fifteen minutes away, so he has no justifiable excuse. Any advise would be greatly appreciated! I know every state is different so if anybody has any ideas I'm from Indiana.
