Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

If I had a one night stand and ended up pregnant, how can we get the father (know who he is) to sign over his rights. He wants this as he is not ready.

This can certainly be done, but you should contact an attorney in your area familiar with adoption law rather than ask for free advice here. This is something you want to do correctly the first time.
