Since I don't recommend doing an adoption, even a step parent adoption, without an attorney you should start the process by shopping around for an attorney. Once you choose one, they will tell you what you have to do. Whether you need to be married and for how long, what you need to do to establish the legal father and that he is deceased.
Once that is taken care of, then a court signing off on the adoption should be simple. |
