Can a mother in Texas give up her legal rights to a child at birth without going to court or contacting a judge?
Yes you can, but it should be done through a lawyer. Example: Many couples that can't have children will often go through a lawyer and pay for your medical expenses and even perhaps allow you to live with them while you are pregnant. In turn, you sign papers that as soon as the baby is born they will be the adoptive parents. I am not sure about the U.S., but in Canada after the birth of your child you have 30 days to decide if it was the right things to do. Phone your "Bar Association" and find a lawyer that deals in child adoption. Once you do find that lawyer then you will meet the prospective adoptive parents and get to know them. Often the adoptive parents will also pay all legal costs. Yes, Texas was one of the first to pass a Safe Haven Law for newborns. The mother may give up her infant at the time of birth or within 30 days of the birth. The infant must be surrendered at a licensed medical facility, the best choice is a hospital emergency room. The mother does not need the consent of the court, will not be required to give any information other than that which she willingly volunteers and will not be required to sign any documents.
