First you have to actually be married. At that time, depending on whether he was ever married to the mother, obtained legal custody or legitimated the child, and whether the mother pays support, you may be able to file a stepparent adoption. This is a very technical proceeding and you need a lawyer to get through it. Once you marry feel free to call me at 404-768-3509.
