You'll need to contact an adoption attorney in your area for more assitance.

You'll more than likely need a homestudy also...

The attorney will be able to point you in the right direction....be sure and call around and compare pricing for the legal fee's...

Good luck!

Price isn't the only thing

Be sure your attorney knows what he/she is doing. If you use one that isn't familiar with adoption law, you could end up with a bigger (and more expensive) mess than you bargained for.

The American Academy of Adoption Attorneys is a good place to start. They are certified in the practice of adoption law.

Good Luck,
