Adoption of my wife's son
Hi All,
Greetings of the day
I am married to a separated girl with a 5 yr old son. I am Hindu and she is Christian. I am trying to change my name as his father's name in all his documents. My wife's ex-husband signed an agreement while getting divorce, stating that, their son can stay with his mother and he don have any rights on him though she get married also. The agreement is duly signed by both of them, witnessed by their parents and attested by notary as well. My wife's ex-husband is already remarried to a another girl. Now my question is,
1. Shall I prepare a adoption deed referring to the above mentioned agreement?
2. As he already signed an agreement, still we need to get his consent for adoption?
3. If so, is there any other option to get it done without his consent, as we don't want to trap into a problem, as he may claim for the child just to disturb our life.
Awaiting for your valuable suggestion.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Rajan
