Legal Question in Family Law in New York

Re: Adoption Question

Once you are married, your fiance can begin the adoption process. It should not be difficult if the father signs over his rights. You would need a lawyer to file a petition for adoption, with various affidavits, there would have to be a home study, and then the adoption should go through. These types of adoptions in New York are handled by surrogates court.

If you should have any other legal questions, please feel free to contact me.
