Common Questions About Adoption in Alaska
How long does the adoption process take in Alaska?
It varies by type, but most adoptions take several months. We’ll help manage timelines and filings so there are no surprises.
Can a stepparent adopt without the other parent’s consent?
Sometimes. If a parent has abandoned the child or their rights are legally terminated, adoption may proceed without their consent.
What’s the difference between agency and private adoption?
Agency adoptions go through state-licensed providers; private adoptions are arranged directly between parties. We can assist with either.
Do adoptive parents need to go to court?
Yes. A judge must approve the adoption. We’ll help prepare you for your court hearing and handle filings.
Can LGBTQ+ families adopt in Alaska?
Yes. All qualified families—including LGBTQ+ couples—can adopt.
