Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

Re: adoption

No. You must obtain a voluntary or involuntary termination of parental rights. In cases such as the one you describe, this is often possible. He may be willing to do so in exchange for termination of his child support obligation. ON the other hand, the court may order the termination as being in your son's best interest (if he refuses).

Contact me to discuss further.

Re: adoption

No. He can either voluntarily terminate his rights or you can ask a court to involuntarily terminate his parental rights.

If you have a choice voluntary is the way to go. I think if you point out that by signing away his rights he will not have to pay child support he'll be more than willing to sign.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
