Stepfather wants to adopt

[Renee1]

My husband and I have been married for 2 years. He is interested in adopting my children, ages 13 and 14. Their father has never been in the picture and has never paid child support.

How do I go about having my husband legally adopt my children?

Thank you.

you need to see if he voluntarily relinquish his parental rights. If not, take him to court and see if they will issue an ex parte order for abandonment. then you can begin the adoption process
