A Washington family law attorney typically charges $3,000-$5,000+ for an uncontested stepparent adoption. Contested cases can run $10,000 or more.
By comparison, our professional document preparation service is $349 — and the results are the same. Your adoption is filed in the same Superior Court, uses the same legal process, and results in the same final adoption order.
We've helped over 1,104 families in Washington complete their adoptions. Our documents are customized for your specific county, and we guarantee 100% court acceptance. The only difference is that you handle the filing yourself — with our step-by-step guidance.
