How much does adoption cost if the mother consents and is very willing to participate?

I can only find information on the ones who the baby has no-one. This is my young cousin and she lives with my grandma. Is it free for her to just sing it over to me? Or will it still cost me alot of money just to make it legal? Does anyone know?

We just adopted three little girls and both bio-mother and father willingly sign their rights over, but it still cost us 1,500.00. For court fees and lawyer fees. I would recommend calling lawyers and asking! Good Luck!

Check into guardianship, it's cheaper and the childs history will not be sealed through adoption.

its free for her to sign...but if you are adopting then you need to have an adoption homestudy and all the background checks done and possibly classes and all this costs money. Adoption is much, much more than just signing papers. and no one signs any child over to someone else. Parental rights get terminated, then an adoption can be done thru a court.
