Re: adoption
You should be eligible to apply to adopt the child. Let the agency for which you serve as a foster parent know you're interested in adopting the child. Your local bar association may be able to provide some suggestions as to a lawyer to hire, many of whom are free or low cost. The Los Angeles Bar resource number is (213) 627-2727. Good luck!
