What would be the legal way for

Question

My daughter's bio-father passed away when i was 8 months pregnant with her. We were not together at the time. I have been involved with my current boyfriend since I was 2 months pregnant (i didn't know i was with child at the time). My boyfriend has been there everyday since my daughter was born. How do we legally make him her father? would he have to go through the adoption process or is it as simple as signing a birth certificate afadavit?

Answer 1

He would still have to go through the adoption process.  But it should be pretty simple and easy since the biological father is no longer living.

Answer 2

although you might be able to get away with the birth cert afidavit. but if you have the money and dont care if she knows he isnt the bio then by all means go with adoptions
