[quote=Anonymous][quote=SarahandtheAteam][quote=Anonymous]You do need a lawyer. Do not do this yourself. Imagine how hurt your son would be to find out when he's 17 that his stepdad who he thought adopted him is not actually his adopted dad, all because his parents were too cheap to hire an attorney and had too big egos to admit they needed legal counsel. [/quote] thank you for your reponse! i do want to say, though, that it has nothing to do with having a big ego- lawyers are simply expensive and require at least $1000 up front to retain. We do plan on retaining legal counsel if we need it, we aren't outright refusing to seek it. [/quote] Glad to see that. Then start saving your scheckles now so you can retain the lawyer who will help with the step-parent adoption so it's above-board.[/quote]
