If you can't find the answer here, contact my office for a consultation. There are various cases I've handled that are similar to this, but not exactly. I would have to ask more questions, and I would have to do some research. If someone doesn't answer your question based on the information that you have presented here, contact me.
Re: giving up parental rights in calif
Once the parents have surrendered their parental rights and the child is adopted the child's legal parents are the adoptive parents. The adopted child loses the right to inherit from the biological parents or through the biological parents. Grandparents have few rights to contact with a grandchild. You have no obligation to allow the biological grandparent contact with the child.
