Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
biological dad abandonment
My 3 step kids bio dad is across the country. He periodically calls, just to annoy my wife. Is there a period of time that he goes w/o calling in which we could file abandonment, in which i could adopt them? He refuses to sign over his rights.

Re: biological dad abandonment
Abandonment in Arizona is defined as 6 months of no contact and six months of no support.
We can absolutely help you decide whether you have the bases to pursue termination and adoption.
I can explain the procedures better by phone or in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via e'mail. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss the matter in more detail.
Please call me directly to discuss the specifics of your case, or contact my assistant Alicia or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule a free 1/2 hour consultation.
