I need to know what type of representation I need to purse the adoption of our niece. She has been legally placed with us. My sister would like us to adopt her daughter and the father lives out of state and has no involvement and white an extensive criminal background.
Adoption is a complicated legal process. An attorney is necessary, unless you have assistance with the process an agency knowledgable about the process, like DCFS. Good luck
