In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.

That depends on the circumstances of the custody modification. Was it permanent, temporary, was the child adopted, did the parent voluntarily relinquish parental rights or were they terminated by the court?

He or she would be able to provide an informed and detailed opinion on whether or not you have any rights and if so, what they are.

Any parent that voluntarily relinquishes their parental rights no longer has any obligations to that child. However, a parent choosing to do so will be responsible for any past child support payments. After a termination of rights, the birth-parent is no longer considered a parent in any capacity, unless there is a mediation agreement in place and signed by all involved parties.
Is there a AZ legal form for father to terminate rights of an unborn child?
No there is not. In Arizona a parent may only terminate their rights voluntarily in preparation for an adoption. In other cases, the courts may terminate rights involuntarily in certain and dire circumstances. Both scenarios are after the birth of the child, not before. Until an adoption is legalized or if adoption isn't going to happen, the parent's obligation to support their child does not end with the termination of their rights. All that does is terminate the parent's right to see their child and have any say-so in their lives.
