Re: adoption

Based on what you have written, a party lcan always represent themselves in most legal actions. The party should ensure that they are fully aware of the family code sections, procedure rules, and all the administrative requirements associated with the specific legal proceeding. There are specific requirements for step-parent adoptions pursuant to the family code. If my local family law firm can assist you with this legal issue or any other legal matter, please contact my legal assistant Jennifer ([email protected]) to arrange for an initial consultation.

If a person knows all the steps, the proper sections of the Family Code, Rules of Civil Procedure, and wants to take all these chances on the legal adoption of the child, I think they should do it themselves. Oh, that person is called a lawyer. Good Luck.
