Birth Father Rights after Termination Hearing

I believe that you should be fine and that the bdad does not have a leg to stand on--if he signed the papers and the time to back out has passed. Worst case is that this could cost you more money should he decide to presue this with the courts saying he signed under duress or fraud. In our case both parents signed and TPR was granted a few days later we received notice that the Bmom was contesting the adoption. This cost us time, emotional stress and money ($5000 which was prorated by the attorney). She claimed duress which she could not prove. Our adoption still finalized on time, since the courts put this case at the front of the docket in order to settle the custody issue in a timely manner.
