If she was legally adopted by her aunt and uncle, then the biological father's obligation to pay child support was terminated. I suppose it's possible that he's still paying through CSE if the agency was never informed of the adoption, though not likely. Regardless, once she was adopted, her new...

You'll need an attorney, and whether or not you'll be successful will depend on whether or not the legal father agrees to disestablish paternity and how old the child is now. If he's in jail because he caused harm to your daughter, then it will be easier.

Yes, support can be awarded in a 50/50 physical custody situation. The parent with the higher income would generally pay, though health insurance and other considerations may affect that. You can find the child support manuals and tables at the link below...

First, can you say how this move is in the best interests of the children? Will you be representing your wife in court? Are you planning to request that the ex pay half of the child care, medical, and school supply costs too? How old are the children? How many times have they changed...

Unfortunately, a notarized agreement is of little legal value and will not prevent the mother from filing for support through CSE. Is your husband the legal father? Are there any court orders for custody/visitation? If your husband wants primary custody, he should handle it through the courts...

In order to be named on the birth certificate (in Georgia), he was required to sign AOP.

Actually, although the AOP/birth certificate establishes paternity, it does NOT confer any rights to the unwed father. The father still must file for custody/visitation through the court to have any rights at all to the child.
