Adoption of my daughter by my second husband Adoption of my daughter by my second husband

How can my second husband adopt my daughter from previous marriage? I was divorced in first marriage. Is this possible to write my second husband's name as her legal guardian and to give her surname of my second husband without consent of her biological father?

A.Dear Client,

The need for the biological father's consent in your current situation hinges on the terms agreed upon during the divorce of your first marriage. If you opted for a one-time settlement, you may not require the biological father's consent as it is already settled in court. To provide further assistance, please share the signed consent terms and the divorce petition for a more detailed examination.

A.Dear Client,
Without the consent of the biological father of the daughter from the first marriage even if it is dissolved by a decree of divorce, your second husband cannot adopt your daughter. Under the Hindu law for adoption consent of a biological father is a must that is consent from your wife’s first husband is a must and then the adoption deed should be duly registered. The Deed of adoption has to be registered in favor of your 2nd husband by the biological father of your daughter.
