Yes, uncontested adoptions are generally straightforward. Since there are no disputes or challenges, the process tends to move smoothly with fewer legal complications. However, certain legal steps are still required, such as:
- Termination of Parental Rights: This must be documented legally.
- Home Study: In most cases, adoptive parents still need to complete a home study.
- Finalization: A court hearing is required to officially finalize the adoption and issue the adoption decree.
