Question

I live in Florida. My baby was born in Tennessee. The birth mom wants my wife to adopt our baby. How can I do that with out an attorney? Or how much will it cost?



Answer

Each attorney charges will likely differ. However, as long as both parties fully cooperate, this should be a relatively inexpensive matter for an attorney to handle for you. You can probably get this done for less than $2,500.00 (including court charged filing fee).

Answer

If the child resides in Tenn. you should speak with a Tennessee attorney. If the child is a resident of Florida ( been here over 181 days) the case can be heard by a Florida Judge. Look in the phone book for adoption services; if both parties are in agreement it should be quick and inexpensive.
