The best way is by contacting a family law attorney who does adoptions in Montgomery County. Terminating parental rights and adopting a child are technical and paper intensive. If you don't do it right these things can come back to bite you.

I absolutely agree with Attorney Henderson.

It's 2 lawsuits in one. Even lawyers that have never handled one have a difficult time with them because they are so complex.

It would be a lot like building a car from scratch. I'm sure it can be done - but I would not try to do it. Given enough time and energy I could eventually figure it out, but why would I build a car when I could just buy one - new or used?

Look on this website and on www.avvo.com for an attorney in Montgomery County to help you. Shop around. Attorneys like doing adoptions because they eventually are happy events.
