    Forfeiting paternal rights and adoption
    I really need some help- almost two years ago my sons biological father said that he would sign over his rights. Since then the state has been garnishing his wages for child support- off and on- And I have no contact with him nor has he called to contact my son. I know that he would sign over his rights in a heartbeat and My husband would like to adopt my son- could someone direct me in the right path- I need to know how to start this whole process
