If your parental rights were terminated and your child was legally adopted your chances are slim that any court will reverse that order. Think of your child. If the child was adopted and has adapted to a new family it would be extremely disruptive to remove the child from that home. There must have been extreme circumstances for the court to terminate your parental rights in the first place. Your problems and instability should not continue to affect the child. You should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options, if any, or your lack of rights to be involved in your child's life.

What is the law in Washington state on a biological father who hasn't had any contact with his son and hasn't paid child support in 5 months?

I am not sure what it is there. But here in Ohio after 1 year of a parent not paying support and/or having any visitaions, then if you take them to court you can have them sign off all parental rights for abandonment. The best thing to do is contact a lawyer for a free consultation and get their advice.


Can the biological mother sign over parental rights to biological father?

Any time a parent releases custodial rights it must be done through the Family Court. If this other man is the child's step parent then Dad can voluntarily terminate his parental rights through the court and then step dad can adopt the child. But Dad can't just sign his rights over to any other man. Legal guardianship of children must be accomplished by court order.

What do you lose when you have your parental rights removed from you?

If your parental rights are taken away from you, you lose all contact and say over what that child does. You will not have visitation with the child at all and you cannot make decisions about their school, medical, or religion.


What is the leagal age in Texas that a biological parent can contact an adopted child that the biological parent lost parental rights to?

When they are considered adults, age 18. Considering a 18yo is still very much a teen though and have lots of growing up to do i would suggest you contact the parents first to find out how the child is and has been during these years. You don't want to shock the child, especially if the child does not know they are adopted. Send the parents a letter and include a letter in it to the child. Let them tell him/her you are looking forward to meet them. Letters can be a great start since you can really think about what you want to say there.

How do you go about giving your parental rights Texas?

Hire a lawyer, or contact your local Department of Human Services. 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.


How does a father get his kids back if he lost all rights and the kids already been adopted?

If the adoptions have been finalized, the father cannot change that. However, by contacting the agency that facilitated the adoption, the adoptive families may be open to their children having contact with their biological father. However, some families want to have closed adoptions, which means their children will have no regular contact with their biological parents. If parental rights were terminated, there may be some major emotional issues for these children that might need to wait until they are older to address.


How can your husband adopt your child in the state of MN if the biological father has no contact?

You may attempt to contact the biological father to request he give up his parental rights. If he is willing to do this, any family law attorney can process the paperwork. If you are unable to contact the father, you can petition the courts to terminate his rights as an absentee. Again, a competent family law attorney can process this for you.


After termination of parental rights can you gain visitation?

It depends on why the rights were terminated. If your ex is getting re-married and the new stepparent wants to adopt the child, then you can still get visition. If parental rights were terminated because you didn't want to pay child support, didn't have regular contact with the child, or if they were taken from you in the best interest of the child, then no. You signed over your child and stated on paper that you are no longer their parent. Congratulations.
