Can parents get their children back even if they signed over their rights?
No. When you surrender your parental rights it is forever (unless you can prove you were not competent to make the decision, i.e. you were under duress, you were mentally incapacitated, etc.).
Are the first contracts you sign binding?
I do not know what you mean by the term, "First Contracts". Did you sign more than one contract. A signed contract is binding unless you can prove you signed it under duress. I do not know the answer -- but a contract can have contingencies, and if those conditions are not met, the contract is null and void. Whether a contract with contingencies is called "binding" I'm not sure though.
Can a contract become null and void due to one party not understanding what exactly it was that they have was signed?
This would be very hard to prove. Ignorance may be bliss but it is no excuse. If there had been a question about the contract they should have asked questions prior to signing it. If there was an attempt to cheat the person who signed it by confusing the issues or misleading them, then that is illegal but you must be able to prove it.
Can you void a contract if you signed it while under the influence?
In some circumstances, signing a contract while under the influence may make the contract voidable. The validity of voiding the contract would depend on various factors such as the extent of intoxication, whether the other party was aware of your condition, and the laws in your jurisdiction. It is advisable to seek legal advice to understand your options in this situation.

What do you do when you signed while drunk?
You do not state what you signed, but it is rare for drunkenness to be accepted as an excuse for defaulting on a contract or other signatory instrument. You are most likely stuck, unless you can (a) prove without a doubt that you were drunk, and (b) have a good lawyer. Even then, the likelihood of getting out of the agreement is slim.
What phrase or law code can you Quote to prove you don't owe Bank credit card debt when they can't produce copy of the alleged signed contract?
It's called validation, but it is not to used for an original creditor.
Can a Bank legally backdate a Cover Letter and Confirmed Loan Terms agreement to the day before a contract was signed?
You would need to speak with your attorney about that. There is the issue of whether it was legal, and also whether you can prove it.
What are your rights if you signed a contract at 18 but was lied to about what the contract was for?
At 18 the law considers you an adult. You could bring a case of fraud against the other party. Misrepresentation is grounds for nullifying a contract, but you have to be able to prove it. Typically, oral representations before signing are not going to be taken into consideration, especially if there is a clause to that affect (Parole evidence clause) in the agreement.
What do i do if i signed a contract under duress?
First you should look for any right of rescission in the contract. That right is generally found only in home equity mortgage contracts and contracts signed at your home and you must cancel the contract within the time period allowed. Otherwise you will need to prove that you were under duress in a court of law by providing proof of the duress. Duress in law is not taken lightly. The claimant must prove coercion beyond what would be considered reasonable persuasion whereby a person performs an act as a result of violence, threat or other extreme pressure against the person.
What can you do when a loan officer misrepresents the terms of a loan?
It may be hard to prove that anyone misrepresented the terms if you signed a contract acknowleging the terms. I realize that contracts can be pages and pages of fine print, but in the end, you are obligated to know the wording of your contract before you sign. You could contact a consumer attorney for advice.
How can you prove a verbal breach of contract?
Simple answer: There is no such thing. Contracts MUST be written and signed by bothparties to be legally binding. There is an old saying, "A verbal contract is as good as the paper it is written on."
