Family Law Applies to Stepparent Adoption Cases

The California Family Code provides in Chapter 5, Section 9000-9007, rules that apply to stepparent adoption:

  • A stepparent who wishes to adopt the child of their spouse or domestic partner must file a petition with the clerk in the county where they reside. This petition has specific requirements for form and information; any incorrect information or deviation from form requirements can delay procedural flow and the adoption.
  • If the child is subject to guardianship, this is also a factor to divulge.
  • Any prior agreements between the stepparent and birth parent for child/parent contact must also be attached. An investigation will be conducted by court authorities.
  • Notarized papers of consent must be executed properly.
  • Inheritance rights are addressed in these rules, as are procedures for withdrawal of consent.
