I was adopted(birth parents are dead) but my adopted father is a deadbeat dad..
I was adopted(birth parents are dead) but my adopted father is a deadbeat dad... My mother re-married & he husband (stepfather) has been what I consider my father. How can I have my adopted fathers name taken off my birth certificate & add my step fathers name? My mother is now deceased. The adoption was in TN and I now... live in GA. I am 39 years old and have had no contact with my adopted father since 3 years after adoption at the age of 5. I had my name legally changed to my stepfathers last name last year. Can anyone help?

No new Birth certificate was issued upon the name change. And He never earned the right to be my father.
