Yes, the court will require that the bio father be found and consent to the adoption.

Since you will need an attorney to prepare the paperwork, I suggest starting now to shop for one who can help you prepare.

Since he does not care for them, he should have no issue signing for the adoption. Also he will or should be glad, since once it happens he will be able to stop paying child support
