Re: Adoption

Whether the father is on the birth certificate or not or has paid child support does not change the fact that he has parental rights which must be terminated according to the law. Then your new husband can adopt the child. If you're serious about this, contact me by e-mail and I will give you my fees for such services. I can do this for you if you want.
