Hi All- I need some help with a situation I have with my daughter and husband. She is 15, we live in the state of Florida. She and my husband (her step dad) are very close and he wants to adopt her. She has lived with me in Florida for 9 years and in that 9 years, her biological father has not paid a dime in child support or had any contact with her at all. We do not have any current contact information for him. The last we knew, he was living in Tennessee, but we don’t have an address, phone number or anything.
How would we go about filing for adoption? Can we just file and terminate bio father’s parental rights on the grounds of abandonment? How does this all work?
I’ve tried Googling for answers, but I’m coming up empty handed.
Any advice is appreciated!
