What court handles stepparent adoption in California?

California

In California, stepparent adoptions are filed in Superior Court under California Family Code Division 13. California has 58 counties, and our document package is customized specifically for your countie's requirements and forms. Each countie may have slightly different procedures or supplemental forms, and we know exactly what each one requires because we've helped families file in every countie in California.
