Yes, there's a 30% rate of paternity fraud where a mother gets a man whose not the father to sign the birth certificate.
If the father is not legally divorced from another woman does his name still go on the birth certificate?
If the mother is not married to anyone else there is no one else considered to be the more likely father, so the father's marital status does not bar him from claiming the child and signing the birth certificate if he is willing to do so.
Can you put his name on the birth certificate if he cant sign the birth certificate?
Putting a father's name on the birth certificate does not make him legally the father if you are not married to him. You can put his name on the birth certificate, but realize that it has no legal impact. In order to have paternity established, it has to be done with a court order.
Can the birth father later reverse the adoption of your son if he is not on the birth certificate?
