How can my husband adopt my daughter from a previous relationship?
My daughter's biological father has not been in her life since she was 3 months old; no contact of any sort. Since he has left, I have met and married a wonderful man; who has raised and supported my daughter. My husband would like to adopt my daughter, however, I have not known how to contact her biological father; until a week ago.
We have consulted a lawyer to start the adoption process, but they were not very supportive or positive rather, on him waiving his rights to allow this adoption.
Don't they have laws in place that allow the rights of the father to be waived if there hasn't been any type of contact?
