    New husband adopting
    If my husband adopts my child will he have rights to her if something ever were to happen?

    Where is the child biological father? He is willing to sign over his rights?

    First its not a good idea to piggyback your question on someone else's. This can lead to confusion. You should start a new thread. So I've moved your question to its own thread.

    Yes, adopting a child makes the adoptive parent the legal parent. Which gives that person the same rights as the bio parent had. The bio parent will have to relinquish their rights to clear the way for the adoption.
