The birth father first must register with the Oio Putative Father Registry that is maintained by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services within 30 days after the birth of the child. Also, he must file a formal objection to the adoption in court and be prepared to offer an alternative parenting plan. The birth father should hire an attorney to represent him.
