He can contact the adoption agency where the adoption took place or call a good lawyer that has expertise in this field. I wish you all the best of luck:) *
Once a parent has voluntarily relinquished parental rights or they have been permanently terminated by the court said parent loses all claims to the child/childrent in question. If the relinquishing parent can prove that he or she was mislead when agreeing to the action they may have a chance to appeal. However, if the parent took the action with the intent of being relieved of financial obligations the TPR is not subject to appeal or can it be rescinded and the adoption will be allowed to go forth. The legal premise being, if the parent did not want to support the child/children they also were not concerned with the child's/children's well-being.
***** edited to add by Gershom *** He would have to get a "father friendly lawyer" there are lawyers that will "say" they're on your side, but really work for the industry and will mislead you to assure that your rights remain terminated.
www.adoptioncrossroads.org ( joe soll has a list of natural family friendly lawyers ) Once you find a lawyer who's "really" on your side, you would have to prove coercion in the court of law. Save everything, document everything and do not walk, RUN to the lawyers office and do it now. Every second that goes by counts at this time.
